1. A method comprising: identifying, via a partition manager, a search index to be partitioned, the search index having a plurality of entity types, wherein each of the plurality of entity types associates records stored in a data store with the respective entity type within the search index; partitioning, via the partition manager, the search index into a first partitioned search index and a second partitioned search index; correlating, via a partitioning scheme, a first subset of the plurality of entity types with the first partitioned search index; and correlating, via the partitioning scheme, a second subset of the plurality of entity types with the second partitioned search index.
