The preceding image shows the basic overview of the system we are going to build:

Twitter is the social media network we all know and love.

Twitter's streaming API allows long-running connections where tweet data is streamed as quickly as possible.

twittervotes is a program we will write that reads tweets and pushes the votes into the messaging queue. twittervotes pulls the relevant tweet data, figures out what is being voted for (or rather, which options are mentioned), and pushes the vote into NSQ.

NSQ is an open source, real-time distributed messaging platform designed to operate at scale, built and maintained by Bit.ly. NSQ carries the message across its instances making it available to anyone who has expressed an interest in the vote data.

counter is a program we will write that listens out for votes on the messaging queue, and periodically saves the results in the MongoDB database. counter receives the vote messages from NSQ and keeps an in-memory tally of the results, periodically pushing an update to persist the data.

MongoDB is an open source document database designed to operate at scale.

web is a web server program that will expose the live results that we will write in the next chapter.
