The docs link is returning error 404 - any chance this has a user management system built in? The tight integration of cognito, GraphQL, and database is something AWS really got right. I'd much rather use 8base than Amplify but I can't tell if you're going to make me first roll my own user management system (hint: making me roll my own user management system is a major incentive for me to look elsewhere)

It does actually, honestly one of the better ones out there. It's super easy to set up roles and set what fields that they can and can't access.

Building in user management has and continues to be a huge priority for us. My background has always been in building complex enterprise software and I was always frustrated in how we needed to build authentication, user management, role-based security, etc. each time. 8base's role-based-security is very strong and easily configurable. In the next few weeks we are releasing a new and improved user management capability that improves the one we have now. We will continue rolling out new application infrastructure capabilities as time goes on so that the backend is overwhelmingly compelling.
