Can workers deployed by helm form database sharding?

[FriskKiddo]

I deployed a manticore cluster with 8 workers. Can I use the cluster as the cluster with 8 shardings.

Well, for example, I create a rt table A in 8 workers, and then create distributed_table in 8 nodes with the configuration of agent(https://manual.manticoresearch.com/Creating_a_table/Creating_a_distributed_table/Creating_a_distributed_table). Each agent of the table in each nodes is set by other 7 workers. So I can query all the data in 8 workers via any distributed_table in workers.

Is it reasonable?

Yes, it's reasonable. Here's the issue about adding support for distributed tables. PRs are welcome. Manticore Search (dev version) can replicate distributed tables (which was a blocker for this). What's left is to make the helm chart use it.
