Can we say Cloud Firestore a web server?

Question

I have done angular project using cloud firestore as my database for my school and I need to mention which server I have used in this project.

Answer 1

As said on https://firebase.google.com/docs/firestore/ is a database so it is incorrect to call it a web server. Anyway you should point that you used this technology, but as a cloud database.

Cloud Firestore is a flexible, scalable database for mobile, web, and server development

Answer 2

For "school" project and minimal architecture, you can use cloud firestore as your primary database. You can access database directly from your native or hybrid app.

If you want to build a web server, then I think Cloud Functions should be better answer.
