Use Google Cloud FireStore - Flexible and Scalable Mobile, Web, and Server Development
Google Cloud FireStore is a fully managed NoSQL database which gives provision to store and sync data for client and server side development. It is a highly flexible, scalable database for mobile applications, web server development from Firebase and Google Cloud Platform.
Cloud Firestore is a highly scalable, cloud hosted, NoSQL realtime database, which helps the users to store, sync, and query data for mobile and web apps globally.
The Features of Cloud Firestore are:
- Querying the Data: Data retrieval can be done in two ways. One is by calling a method function and the other one is event driven
- Serverless Application: Cloud Firestore with mobile and web SDK, adds comprehensive security rules so that the user can access databases globally. Using Cloud Functions, users can execute the backend code that responds to data changes in the current database. It has traditional API libraries with python, Go & PHP
- Synchronization of Data Across Multiple Devices: With Cloud Firestore, users can automatically synchronize application data between devices. Notifications are sent to the users end while there is a data change, which allows developers to build collaborative and real time applications
- Highly Scalable: Developers only focus on building applications instead of managing servers or worrying about consistency
- Application Security: Developers can restrict data access based on user identity and pattern matching on the current data
Advantages of Cloud FireStore:
- High Capabilities of Data Handling: Cloud Firestore offers the benefits of ACID transactions across multiple collections. ACID (an acronym for Atomicity, Consistency Isolation, Durability) is a concept which Database Professionals usually look for when evaluating DB and application architectures. For a reliable DB, all these four attributes must be achieved. Firestore requires less data flattening as it is more structured and it utilizes nesting of objects. It supports indexed queries that enable developers to combine filtered data and sort it in a single query
- High Scalability: It is a NoSQL database which is much easier to handle and organize complex, hierarchical data because it stores data as a collection of documents using sub-collections within the present documents
- Robust Security: It provides flexible and robust security for both mobile and web platforms. It offers automatic multi-region replication and strong consistency
- Auto-Scaling: Scaling of FireStore does not limit the performance. It extends to data storing, synchronization, and data querying for server, web, and mobile apps development
- Realtime Updates: It uses data synchronization to update data on any connected device. However, it is designed to make simple and one-time fetch queries very efficiently
