Firebase Integration in Durham
Integrating Firebase with other systems for Durham organisations, where server-side code operates without any of the restrictions the client has. The Admin SDK bypasses security rules entirely, so an integration running with those credentials can read and write everything — which makes where that code runs a security decision rather than a deployment one.
Why this comes up
The problem
An integration using admin credentials runs in an environment several people can deploy to unchecked.
What you get
What we deliver
- Admin credentials confined to environments with controlled access and deployment
- Service account permissions narrowed, since the default grants a great deal
- Integration logic placed in functions rather than in systems you do not control
- Bulk operations batched, because writes are billed and rate limits apply
- Data exported for downstream systems rather than queried repeatedly at cost
- Failures alerted, as an integration that stopped produces no visible symptom

Working in Durham

Durham's economy is dominated by its university and cathedral, so the commercial base is small and much of the local demand comes from spinouts and suppliers attached to the institutions rather than from independent industry.
Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones.

Firebase Integration in Durham — common questions
- Do security rules apply to server code?
- No — the Admin SDK bypasses them completely. Rules protect client access, so anything holding admin credentials has unrestricted read and write across the project, which means the protection now depends entirely on who can run or modify that code.
- Where should integrations run?
- Somewhere with controlled deployment. Cloud Functions within the project are the natural home, whereas admin credentials placed in a third-party automation tool or a shared server extend full database access to whoever can reach that environment.
- How should bulk work be handled?
- In batches, with the cost counted. Every document read and written is billed and rate limits apply, so an integration iterating a large collection repeatedly is both slow and expensive — exporting to a warehouse for analysis is usually the better pattern.
- How do we know a sync has stopped?
- Only by watching for it. There is no error surfaced to users when an integration quietly fails, so data simply stops arriving downstream — and the gap is typically discovered when somebody notices a report has not changed for a fortnight.
- Do you work with businesses across County Durham?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout North East, including Durham and the surrounding County Durham area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Durham businesses do you usually work with?
- Research spinout software and visitor systems, usually on institutional procurement timelines rather than commercial ones. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Public Sector, Retail and Research.
- Do you cover the areas around Durham?
- Yes — we work throughout North East, including Newcastle, Sunderland, York. Durham is an urban area of roughly 70,000+, and we take on work across the wider County Durham region rather than the city boundary alone.
