jonniejoejonson Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I am trying to understand how twitter get the most recent 'tweets' of the users you are following. Table 1 is a table of users tweets. Table 2 is a table of which users are following which users. To get the most recent tweets of the users i am following do they... 1. They obviously join table 1 and 2 or is there a more effient way especially if i am following 10'000 users?

Mchl Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I think they do not use a relational database for that. http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/407159447/cassandra-twitter-an-interview-with-ryan-king Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/203491-twitter-architecture/#findComment-1066022 Share on other sites More sharing options...
