Time Frame Minute, hour, month, day, year, forever?
# of Variations One document vs many
Single Document Per Time Frame
None
{ "t" => 336381, "u" => 158951, "2011" => {
"02" => { "18" => { "t" => 9, "u" => 6 } } } }
{ '$inc' => { 't' => 1, 'u' => 1,
'2011.02.18.t' => 1, '2011.02.18.u' => 1, } }
Single Document For all ranges in time frame
None
{ "_id" =>"...:10", "bx" => { "320" => 85, "480"
=> 318, "800" => 1938, "1024" => 5033, "1280" => 6288, "1440" => 2323, "1600" => 3817, "2000" => 137 }, "by" => { "480" => 2205, "600" => 7359,
"600" => 7359, "768" => 4515, "900" => 3833, "1024"
=> 2026 }, "sx" => { "320" => 191, "480" => 179, "800" => 195, "1024" => 1059, "1280" => 5861, "1440" => 3533, "1600" => 7675, "2000" => 1279 } }
{ '$inc' => { 'sx.1440' => 1, 'bx.1280' => 1,
'by.768' => 1, } }
Many Documents Search terms, content, referrers...
None
[ { "_id" => "<oid>:<hash>", "t" => "ruby class variables",
"sid" => BSON::ObjectId('<oid>'), "v" => 352 }, { "_id" => "<oid>:<hash>", "t" => "ruby unless", "sid" => BSON::ObjectId('<oid>'), "v" => 347 }, ]
Writes {'_id' => "#{sid}:#{hash}"}
Reads [['sid', 1], ['v', -1]]
Growth Don’t say shard, don’t say shard...
Partition Hot Data Currently using collections for time frames
[ "content.2011.7", "content.2011.8", "content.2011.9", "content.2011.10", "content.2011.11", "content.2011.12", "content.2012.1", "content.2012.2", "content.2012.3",
