Hi, I am trying to build a robust followers list which is scalable maximum up to 5 million users. The problems that I am facing are mainly due to the contrains that app engine have or simply my relative inexperience with it (or both).
Here is what I want to achieve, 1. user A starts following serval people. 2. When A goes to his profile page, A is shown with the list of people that he/she is following. 3. Now the tricky part... I want to show results in such a way that people with more number of followers appear up in the list. Eg. if A is following B, C, D.... so on. If B is also followed by 30 other people, C is followed by 25 other people.... Then when A loads up her/his profile page people he/she is following should appear in order, B,C .... . I did this easily using LinkProperty(storying db.key of others here). But I read somewhere that LinkProperly isn't all that scalable. Is there any really scalable way of doing this without using LinkProperty? Harshal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
