Thanks so much for your comments. As Andrei mentioned, open source is something we are constantly considering but it's one of those decisions that is irreversible and must, therefore, be very carefully considered. Our belief is we must focus on a sustainable business model given the history with products like Parse, Graph.cool and Scaphold.

8base was founded after having spent decades in enterprise software and feeling the tremendous pain associated with designing, hosting and supporting multi-tenant SaaS. Our product is significantly differentiated from Firebase today but we expect that over the rest of 2019 we will diverge further and address some of the major pain points that exist in the market.

We will be coming out Beta in the next few months but we already have some great logos building on the product and paying us real revenues. We are also well funded.
