Key design choices:
- Tweets stored in Cassandra (PRIMARY KEY (user_id, created_at))
- Feed stored in Redis as list of tweet_ids per user (LPUSH/LTRIM/LRANGE)
- Fan-out via Kafka + workers (decoupled, retryable, scalable)
- Hybrid: regular users = push; celebrities = pull-on-read
- Hydration: tweet_ids -> full tweet objects via Cassandra read
