Serverless
Focus on your application development using a fully managed, serverless document database that effortlessly scales up or down to meet any demand, with no manual sharding, maintenance windows, or administrative downtime. Enjoy multi-region replication with strong consistency and virtually unlimited scalability without worrying about managing the underlying database infrastructure.
Gen AI functionality
Easily build generative AI applications with Firestore vector search, MCP Toolbox, LangChain, and Llamaindex. Firestore’s integration supports common patterns — Document loader for loading and storing information from documents, Vector Store, and Memory (such as Chat Messages Memory). You can also use turnkey extensions to integrate Firestore with popular AI services with a few clicks, enabling use cases such as automated embedding generation, language translations, image classification, and more.
Powerful query engine
Firestore allows you to run sophisticated queries, including Vector Search, and ACID transactions against your JSON or BSON-compatible document data. This gives you more flexibility in the way you structure your data.
Libraries for popular languages
Firestore databases support native Firestore, MongoDB, and Datastore drivers and SDKs. This means Firestore databases are accessible in your favorite client-side development runtimes like Web, iOS, Android, Flutter, C++, and Unity, allowing you to focus on application development. Firestore also supports traditional server-side development libraries using Node.js, Java, Go, Ruby, and PHP.
Multi-region replication
Firestore offers automatic multi-region replication with strong consistency and industry-leading high availability of up to 99.999% SLA. This ensures that your data is safe and available, even when disasters strike.
Security
Firestore seamlessly integrates with Cloud Identity and Access Management, Cloud Identity Platform, and Firebase Authentication, to enable customizable identity-based security access controls and enables data validation using a configuration language.
Datastore mode
Firestore supports the Datastore API. You don't need to make any changes to your existing Datastore apps, and you can expect the same performance characteristics and pricing with the added benefit of strong consistency.
