Hi,
We are currently using a high amount of reads on the cloudant platform. We are constantly checking for changes, using the _changes feed using the following parameters:
include_docs=true
filter=monitor/personnel_prebooked
feed=continuous
heartbeat=5000
We are using a massive amount of reads here and we're trying to understand why - our use case is that we are looking for changes on the platform and if we locate changes then we sync them locally.
Right now we have around 6000-8000 systems running this sync and we're hitting several thousand reads a second which is absolutely excessive for the usage that I think we have here.
I've been led to believe that the changes feed is what we need but I need to drastically cut down the number of reads - where am I best to start?
Cheers
Chris
