The Firebase Realtime Database has been around for ~5 years (and is still fully supported after this launch).

Cloud Datastore has been around in some form (started as App Engine Datastore) since 2008.

Cloud Firestore was a massive multi-year joint effort between Firebase and Google Cloud. Google is investing heavily in both, and this is a big deal for our teams.
