Cloud Firestore limit 8 millions writes per day on single document










0














Many realtime apps have documents that act as counters. For example, you might count 'likes' on a post, or the number of visits of a video.



According to my calculations using cloud firestore this value can not grow more than 8 millions per day



With Cloud Firestore and Distributed counter I can have (at most) :



1 write/second * 100 == 100 writes per second.

1 day = 86.400 seconds

86.400 * 100 = 8.640.000


( 100 : Limit maximum depth of subcollections)



How can this limit be exceeded for an application with many users?



Thanks you

A proposed solution is explained in the documentation. You can shard the counter among multiple documents.



Or, you could count with some other storage mechanism (such as Realtime Database) that doesn't have same write limitations as Firestore.
