Hello
Hands-on Entrepreneur and Tech Executive.
Now: Building Musiguru & Singr at Levitum.
Past: Multiple startups. One IPO. One exit.
Android + iOS + Python.
Volunteered @ Droidcon `11, `12 &`13.
App - Stage I
App - Stage II
App - Stage III
Boilerplate, boilerplate
All the little things
Model state maintained in SQLite
Synchronized with the server
Approaches include No-SQL databases in sync
Older app versions end up with different models
Complexity of keeping multiple devices in sync
Duplication of code and business logic
Web + iPhone + Android?
This is when you go..
Dammit.
All I really want to do
is just build my frickin' app.
Enter BaaS Options
Parse
Stackmob
Kinvey
Firebase
Pusher
PubNub
Why BaaS
-
Up and running immediately.
-
No backend dev or dev ops costs.
- Plans are cheap
- Until you get big (good problem to have!)
- The data is yours
- Export when you want. Rebuild custom stack.
#1 reason they matter?
You get to *focus* on your app
Ergo...
Open Q & A
Thanks for listening!
