How well does scriptDB work as substitute for storing data directly in Google Spreadsheets? -


i want retrieve data google analytics api, create custom calculations , push aggregations google spreadsheets in order reuse in google visualisation api app. concern i'll hit spreadsheet cell quota raw data needed calculation.

i know scriptdb quota 100mb before invest time , resources in learning how works i'd idea whether it's feasible storing raw analytics data (provided it's not granular , it's designed answer specific questions) , how of realistically store in scriptdb (relative spreadsheets) before hit quota.

thanks

for bulk data access (e.g. reading table visualization), spreadsheet have speed advantage on scriptdb. what faster: scriptdb or spreadsheetapp? if wish support more sophisticated queries though, "answer specific questions" mention, scriptdb give edge, query times vary number of results should unaffected query criteria themselves.

with data in spreadsheet, able obtain datatable visualization single range.getdatatable() operation. scriptdb, need write script build datatable.

regarding size constraints, it's not possible compare 2 without knowing size of individual data elements. you're aware of general constraints:

  • spreadsheet, 40k cells, may hit (unspecified) size limit before that, depending on data element sizes.

  • scriptdb, 50mb, 100mb or 200mb depending on account type. number of objects can stored affected complexity (depth) of object , size of property names, , of course size of data contained in objects.

ultimately, question of best application matter of opinion, , of factors matter application. if analytics data tabular, spreadsheet offers advantages implementation largely because of range.getdatatable(), , faster bulk access. i'd recommend starting there, , considering move scriptdb if , when hit spreadsheet size or query performance limitations.
