Cloud Databases & Functions
Work with real-time databases (e.g., Firestore) and deploy serverless cloud functions for custom backend logic.
Cloud Databases Unveiled
Welcome! Today, we'll explore cloud databases and serverless functions, essential tools for scalable mobile apps. They provide robust, managed backends without the hassle of server maintenance.
We'll focus on Firestore, a popular choice for real-time data, and Cloud Functions for custom backend logic.
Firestore's Data Model
Cloud Firestore is a flexible, scalable NoSQL document database. Unlike traditional relational databases with tables and rows, Firestore organizes data into collections and documents.
Each document contains key-value pairs, known as fields. Documents live within collections, and collections can even contain subcollections.
