I want to implement the like functionality in my app and im searching for a good solution when it comes to the database. Until now I looked at Firebase, and it seems it could the job when using sharding. As I am a beginner with DBs I thought of asking you. What do you think?

Maybe AWS or something else has something suitable for this use-case?

Well, first of all I will choose the same DB as you are using to save users data.

If you don't have anyone yet, I will recommend you go with Firebase, it can handle your users sessions, social logins, databases and also you can implement a solution for the like functionality.

If your already using firebase, the realtime database should be best practice. Theres even an example with likes in the firebase rtDb Docs for web. But of course you should use react-native-firebase.
