Is Datastore the same as Firestore?

Datastore now runs as Firestore in Datastore mode; we help you choose the right mode.

Can you speed up our Datastore queries?

Yes - usually through better data modelling and composite indexes.

Is Datastore a good fit for our application's data?

It depends on your queries. Datastore suits apps with high read and write volumes and predictable access patterns, such as user profiles or catalogs. If you need complex joins or ad hoc reporting, a relational database may serve you better.

Can we run reports or analytics on our Datastore data?

Yes, though not directly inside Datastore. We export data to BigQuery on a schedule or through a pipeline, so your team can run SQL reports and dashboards without slowing down the live application.

What drives Datastore pricing as our usage grows?

Mainly the number of reads, writes and deletes, plus stored data and indexes. We design entities and indexes to avoid unnecessary operations and add caching where it helps, so costs grow in line with real usage.

Can our Datastore app move from App Engine to Cloud Run?

Yes. Datastore works with Cloud Run, GKE and other Google Cloud services, not just App Engine. We update the client libraries, containerise the app and shift traffic gradually, while your data stays where it is.

Which cloud should we use?

We work across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud and recommend one based on your stack, team and budget.

Can you migrate us to the cloud?

Yes - from on-premise or another provider, with a phased, tested plan.

Do you use containers and Kubernetes?

Yes, where they fit. We also keep simpler setups simple.

Can you reduce our cloud costs?

Usually. Right-sizing, scheduling and pricing plans often cut waste noticeably.

Do you offer managed DevOps?

Yes - monitoring, patching, releases and on-call support.
