Curious - what do you use? any suggestions of good serverless NoSQL? with the built in auth and extras Google/Firebase offer? What about relational? I've used Back4App, but with it being small and FB having killed Parse, it wasn't right.

Have you looked at Sanity [1]? You get both a fast cloud backend (with a powerful GraphQL-like query language with joins, transactions, object-level security, text matching, real-time change notification, etc.) and a collaborative editing front end (optional, but recommended!). The latter is open source and modular. You can deploy serverless just like Firebase/Firestore. Gatsby is a popular way to serve Sanity.

Disclosure: I've contributed to their database tech, but I don't work for Sanity. Mostly just a fan.

I'm looking at FaunaDb very closely, seems like a nice "all you might ever need", but a bit unfamiliar at first glance.
