Firebase is like a web developer friendly version of Google Cloud, that it bases itself on.
It gives easy to use serverless CRUD (with Firestore), authentication, authorization, secure file upload, hosting and server-side functions for things like image processing or database triggers.
I don't think Firebase will be end of live anytime soon, worst case it's user base would get migrated to Google Cloud, as it's really just Google Cloud under the hood. I don't think it's an option for Google to give up on the cloud at this point, even though AFIK Amazon has the biggest market share.
