BaaS (Backend-as-a-Service)

Parse was acquired by Facebook 2013, which means BaaS is a hot concept. Using a Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) can reduce development cost and time-to-market. It’s a simple way of getting a highly scalable backend solution without significant upfront investment.

There are a bunch of players in this field with similar offerings and pricing. When you select a vendor, pricing, performance, developer-friendly etc factors might need your considerations. I have not tried them out yet, but list here for future reference.
