hi, look at the collection type support in cql3, e.g http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cql/3.0/cql/cql_using/use_list_t.html
we can append or remove using "+" and "-" operator UPDATE users SET top_places = top_places + [ 'mordor' ] WHERE user_id = 'frodo'; UPDATE users SET top_places = top_places - ['riddermark'] WHERE user_id = 'frodo'; is there a way to keep a fixed size of the list(collection) ? I was thinking about using TTL to remove older data after certain time but then the list will become too big if the ttl is too long, and if ttl is too short I running the risk of having a empty list(if there is no new activity). Even if I don't use collection type and have my own table, I still ran into the same issue. Any recommendation to handle this type of situation? thanks
