Hi all, I've red all your messages concerning the top 10 ... any solution is possibile but I still did not find the best one.
Using a composite Column Name as suggested would be smart cause it brings to a sorted row where I can have my top-10 in any moment but it can slow down all the platform since, for every operation, I have to read data from cassandra, calculate and store data back. Using counters I could just say "hey, +1 on this" and forget. But using counters I don't have any kind of value-sorting ... I know redis but I think it's too much to use a new key-value db just for this sorting ... I think I'll use a thread that run every X to generate the top10 row ... it won't be realtime but at least it will keep platform performance to a good level.
