Re:Facebook is closing Parse by akarve on Friday January 29, 2016 @10:48AM (#10995827)
for most applications i hypothesize that the cost of writing and maintaining your own backend will far outstrip the cost of the occasional migration.

if anything, the pressure is towards frontend:backend isolation, not away from BaaS. (in the spirit of segment.io for analytics.)

one ironic signal here is that money is bad for survivorship. facebook killed parse because it doesn't move the needle for facebook, but parse might have been a fine & profitable standalone business.
