Happy New Year Everyone! What's the best way to model "unread messages count" in Cassandra? I have a UserMessage CF where the row key is the user id and the column name is the message id (timeuuid) and I store the message and the status (READ/UNREAD) in the value column. I would like to be able to show the number of unread messages to the user. Currently I'm thinking of having a separate Counter CF just to keep the number of unread messages in there. Is this a good approach? Is there a better one?
Thanks, Drew
