In various embodiments, methods and systems for implementing hash-based partitioning in distributed computing systems are provided. At a high level, a distributed computing system having an underlying range-based partitioning architecture for storage may be configured as a hash-based partitioning system, for example, a hybrid range-hash table storage. An operations engine of the hash-based partitioning system receives a tenant request to provision input/output operations per second (IOPS). The tenant request comprises a requested number of IOPS. Based on the tenant request, a provisioning operation to provision IOPS in a hybrid range-hash table storage with hash-based partitioning is determined. The provisioning operation is selected from one of the following: a table creation provisioning operation, an IOPS increase provisioning operation, and an IOPS decrease provisioning operation. The selected provisioning operation is executed for a corresponding table. A user request for data is processed using the table associated with the requested number of IOPS.
