Need advice choosing the right database
You can see this in action in a service I wrote many years ago called Sheep. Note, that code is old and kind of a mess, but it should give you a general idea for how to handle distributed counters. That being said, I don't know of a clean way to do this in Dataflow without wiring up a bunch of DoFn's.

basic but hard problem: How to have order numbers that go chronological #0001 #0002 #0003 ... ?
Oh, this is an interesting problem that I've solved for personally years ago in a project called Sheep. Note, this project won't work for your specific use case, but the premise is the same. Essentially, you're right that a transaction on a single row would create a hotspot, so what you must do is shard the counter across N rows.
