I've uploaded 3 videos on installing and configuring sharding in Oracle Database 12c Release 2. I use Virtual Box running Oracle Linux to create a sharded database and run a swingbench workload against it. In part 3 I then add a new shard online and monitor the database as the data is rebalanced across the cluster. You can see them below but I reccomend running them full screen because there's quite a lot going on.
