Hm. I personally haven't used Parse and I didn't even know they were with Facebook but I've seen it mentioned as a pretty popular back-end platform for Android apps (for example). What's the alternative then? AWS probably then?

I would not tie myself to a Cloud Platform but use open source stuff like docker which can be moved between Clouds. Btw, There's CloudBoost.io which is an alternative to Parse and is both on Docker (self-hosted) or as a managed solution at CloudBoost.io

Would you mind adding a "Disclaimer: I'm the co-founder of CloudBoost.io"? I've got nothing against you promoting your project when people need alternatives, but it's important that people realize you've got a stake in it. Like so:

Disclaimer: I work on Compute Engine, but not Firebase ;).

I was reading an article just the other day saying how the web has made people feel the need to self censor, "apologise in advance", add disclaimers to everything they write, etc. because they're afraid to offend anyone these days since some people online are nuts. Unfortunately I can't find the link now...

Disclaimer: I don't like disclaimers. Just write what you believe; unapologetically be you.
