As a firebase user, what would be the easiest path to map my multi-nested firebase DB (like 'chatrooms/room1/msgs/msg1`) structure to deepstream?

Since I think DS doesn't support more than one level of nested data. Is there an easy way?

deepstream has a concepts of records, similar to individual documents within an object oriented database. Each record can contain any arbitrarily nested datastructure

Yes but can I subscribe to a nested datastructure (say room1/messages) like in firebase. Not the whole record (room1)?

Also, if I want to maintain a list of records (say list of chatrooms). I see that I will have to use the "Lists". But I think I read somewhere that the size of that list cannot exceed some limit. Is that true?

Thanks!
