ever since facebook acquired, then liberated Parse [0], it kind of fulfills this role.

You can roll any subsystem of it and use off-the-shelf providers for other subsystems (we pay a service to host the server, but we run our own dashboard server to poke into it, others run their own database and use just the API server, etc), but I suppose it's easiest if you run the whole parse backend as a whole.

I’ve always wondered why parse was never more popular as a backend for people hosting personal and small scale stuff?
