Question regarding method to sync player data to global leaderboards

So I have 2 global leaderboards, for level and most wins. I decided to perform an initial sync to both of those data stores when a player initially joins the lobby place.

I feel like it’s a reasonable solution, but I wasn’t sure considering the incoming changes to data store API call limitations down the road if this might not be the best option.

I also thought of saving a timer specifically to determine when the player’s data should be resynced to the global leaderboards again (in the rare scenario they rejoin rapidly) but I don’t really know if it’s a necessary thing to add in.

Thanks for any insight.

Cant you just cache on server the result and update this cache time to time and giving client cached data?

That’s not a bad idea as well although resynchronization really only needs to be done when the player joins in the lobby, as nothing too significantly will change after that.
