Ethereum has been exploring the use of sharding as a scaling solution to address the issues of transaction growth and limited scalability with the current block creation process. Sharding involves partitioning the chain into smaller segments, called shards, each capable of processing transactions independently, thus increasing the overall throughput of the network.
