Will there ever be support for aggregate queries? Or queries for non-existent values?

I have a rather large dataset that's tough to scan over and I find the functions/transactions to build my own aggregates not entirely accurate enough since a document has rate limits for writes.



It's a point of internal discussion on scalable ways to achieve this, but nothing we can promise. We definitely see the need for it.


I totally understand its a complex issue. Is there someway I could subscribe to updates regarding this subject for the future (even if it's 2 years away I would enjoy testing any potential developments here)


Hi there! One thing you might consider is using a function to replicate your Firestore data to BigQuery, depending on the value the latter would add. (Very fast OLAP; I'm a big fan.)

(Cloud Firestore eng. here.)
