org.apache.storm.starter.SkewedRollingTopWords

public class SkewedRollingTopWords
extends ConfigurableTopology

This topology does a continuous computation of the top N words that the topology has seen in terms of cardinality. The top N computation is done in a completely scalable way, and a similar approach could be used to compute things like trending topics or trending images on Twitter. It takes an approach that assumes that some works will be much more common then other words, and uses partialKeyGrouping to better balance the skewed load.
