How hard is it to own your own Firebase servers when you scaled up and decided not to use Firebase anymore? That's my main concern with Firebase.

If you are looking for an open source stack looking to solve a similiar problem, you might want to keep an eye on PouchDB (http://pouchdb.com) as well as CouchDB / TouchDB. (disclaimer, one of the PouchDB authors)

It is nowhere as near as 'out of the box' as firebase is, but every part of the stack is open and I dont think it will take a long time until it is as ready out of the box as firebase is.
