An alternative to using MySQL db for love messages?

Question

I want to introduce a Facebook-like “likes” system in which my members can click a button (or dislike it) and it rates the message up or down. The vote count should be visible.

My first (and only) thought about this is to create a new “likes” table in my MySQL database. But when I look back at sites like Facebook and YouTube, which have billions of likes for all their videos, it seems like resource-intensiveness has a table that can hold so many posts.

Table structure will be

id, post, value, user

Are there any alternatives to using a MySQL table for “likes”?
