Best structure database for real world project like shopping products or post.

@SreekanthKrishnan 6 жыл бұрын

1. Structure for feeds in social media app 2. Advanced querying with multiple fields 3. Possible issues if your app gets 1 Million downloads in a day :P (Best practices to make sure things don't break on scaling up) 4. How to maintain consistency of duplicated data 5. How to deal with aggregation queries when device is offline. For example user clicked like button. Like count needs to be incremented but transactions won't succeed or cloud functions won't execute as device is offline. 6. Complete real world examples for social media, shopping, messaging etc.

#AskFirebase How do we backup and restore databases so we can have PROD and DEV environment? In SQL, we can simply perform backup and then restore it using a different name. My startup is based in Indonesia, currently building a new Android app using Firestore as the backend. We need to have PROD and DEV environment. DEV is for Internal Test, Alpha, and Beta.

"In the Realtime Database world, when you retrieve some element in the tree, you automatically retrieve everything below it. And that would mean downloading potential hundreds of [elements] anytime I want to grab a couple dozen [elements]... But in Cloud Firestore world, queries are shallow by default." (This is a big point that a lot of beginner Firebase programmers should keep in mind).

@brianoliveira5471 2 жыл бұрын

But if you actually need a lot of data and everything below it, you need to create a lot of queries because Firestore is shallow by default and that's a big deal. It all depends on the way you're modeling. You can use indexes to help in this process of querying and some techniques in Realtime Database too, as well you can do that in Firestore. NoSQL is a fun world to explore! (:
