Is it possible using Firebase to output GPS coordinates of users (with their permission, of course) with a fairly frequent update: every 5 seconds, within a certain radius: 2-10 km, in the amount of 30-40 users, how many requests can the Firebase server handle per second? How to transfer data from one Firebase user account to another, the same coordinates, for example?

    You can receive user coordinates from a client, and send requests to the server as often as you want, if you are ready to pay for the server load. And how to transfer the coordinate data from one account to another, I think one firebase is indispensable, because firebase does not allow you to write your server part. You can use the google app engine, send coordinates and user id to it, it will accept your http request and, based on it, send a request to firebase, and from the database firebase your client will receive data, as usual.

    • Google has even tutorials using firebase + server -> client. - Maxgmer
    • Perhaps the question is a little off topic, but maybe somewhere they have seen how easy it is to write down the coordinates (fixed) in a firebase?). - Morozov
