Contadores distribuídos

Muitos aplicativos em tempo real possuem documentos que funcionam como contadores. Por exemplo, você pode contar 'curtidas' em uma postagem ou 'favoritos' de um item específico.

No Cloud Firestore, não é possível atualizar um único documento de forma ilimitada. Se você tiver um contador baseado em um único documento e incrementos frequentes o suficiente, eventualmente verá contenção nas atualizações do documento. Consulte Atualizações em um único documento .

Solução: contadores distribuídos

Para oferecer suporte a atualizações de contador mais frequentes, crie um contador distribuído. Cada contador é um documento com uma subcoleção de "fragmentos" e o valor do contador é a soma do valor dos fragmentos.

A taxa de transferência de gravação aumenta linearmente com o número de fragmentos, portanto, um contador distribuído com 10 fragmentos pode lidar com 10 vezes mais gravações que um contador tradicional.

Limitações

A solução mostrada acima é uma forma escalonável de criar contadores compartilhados no Cloud Firestore, mas você deve estar ciente das seguintes limitações:

  • Contagem de fragmentos – O número de fragmentos controla o desempenho do contador distribuído. Com poucos fragmentos, algumas transações podem precisar ser repetidas antes de serem bem-sucedidas, o que retardará as gravações. Com muitos fragmentos, as leituras ficam mais lentas e mais caras. Você pode compensar a despesa de leitura mantendo o total do contador em um documento de roll-up separado, que é atualizado em uma cadência mais lenta, e fazendo com que os clientes leiam esse documento para obter o total. A desvantagem é que os clientes terão que esperar que o documento cumulativo seja atualizado, em vez de calcular o total lendo todos os fragmentos imediatamente após qualquer atualização.
  • Custo – O custo de leitura de um valor de contador aumenta linearmente com o número de fragmentos, porque toda a subcoleção de fragmentos deve ser carregada.
