I had offered that we'd offer stats instead of per file, just per
customerId as a beginning
point. so basically we'd have 1 entity per customerId. and just +1 the
counter on a per
customerId.
So while a customer
That's one possibility I haven't considered. Since we just need to provide
the stats of the past 24 hours, it doesn't need to be very up-to-date.
And in the greater scheme of things, we can probably afford to lose a few event
counts.
So this certainly points to saving this to memcache and uses ta
FWIW, I don't like sharded counters for this application either. But
it boils down to two questions:
1) How up-to-date do you need the count to be?
2) How accurate does the count need to be? Can you afford losing a
few counts now and then?
One solution is simply log access records yourself, eac

Hi,
This is more of a design question, so I thought this would be more
suited here instead of stackoverflow.
I have a bunch of files in google storage. I want to track the access
to those files. So one approach
I came up with is, mark all files as private, gave GAE read only
access. and the url p
