Verteilte Zähler

Viele Echtzeit-Apps haben Dokumente, die als Zähler fungieren. Sie können beispielsweise „Gefällt mir“ für einen Beitrag oder „Favoriten“ für einen bestimmten Artikel zählen.

In Cloud Firestore können Sie ein einzelnes Dokument nur etwa einmal pro Sekunde aktualisieren, was für einige Anwendungen mit hohem Datenverkehr möglicherweise zu wenig ist.

Lösung: Verteilte Zähler

Um häufigere Zähleraktualisierungen zu unterstützen, erstellen Sie einen verteilten Zähler. Jeder Zähler ist ein Dokument mit einer Untersammlung von „Shards“, und der Wert des Zählers ist die Summe der Werte der Shards.

Der Schreibdurchsatz steigt linear mit der Anzahl der Shards, sodass ein verteilter Zähler mit 10 Shards 10-mal so viele Schreibvorgänge verarbeiten kann wie ein herkömmlicher Zähler.

Einschränkungen

Die oben gezeigte Lösung ist eine skalierbare Möglichkeit, gemeinsame Zähler in Cloud Firestore zu erstellen, aber Sie sollten sich der folgenden Einschränkungen bewusst sein:

  • Anzahl der Shards – Die Anzahl der Shards steuert die Leistung des verteilten Zählers. Bei zu wenigen Shards müssen einige Transaktionen möglicherweise erneut versucht werden, bevor sie erfolgreich sind, was die Schreibvorgänge verlangsamt. Bei zu vielen Shards werden Lesevorgänge langsamer und teurer. Sie können den Leseaufwand ausgleichen, indem Sie die Zählersumme in einem separaten Rollup-Dokument aufbewahren, das mit einer langsameren Kadenz (z. B. einmal pro Sekunde) aktualisiert wird, und Clients aus diesem Dokument lesen lassen, um die Summe zu erhalten. Der Kompromiss besteht darin, dass Clients warten müssen, bis das Rollup-Dokument aktualisiert wird, anstatt die Gesamtsumme zu berechnen, indem sie alle Shards unmittelbar nach jeder Aktualisierung lesen.
