There is a contact us on the bottom of the features section by "get it". Or you can just email me at [email protected]. The enterprise version has some really interesting features, such as bridging redshift and bigquery.

This is a side project of mine that allows you to take your existing apps and make them work on multiple cloud apis without much code change.

Yeah kind of. Whatever the implementation is, the idea is it is managed for customers rather than having to build their own Cassandra cluster and piping.

Ask HN: Data Grid as a Service?

from the ask-hn dept.

I've been working on a Backend as a Service with a friend of mine but I've noticed that people would rather build their base application and then leverage other services for pieces they don't want to build. Search as a Service, Queue as a Service, Log-aggregation as a Service, etc... are very popular. I was wondering if a Data Grid as a service would be an interesting product to anyone. A...

This was the first thing I heard upon meeting someone who was supposed to give me career advice. How do you even answer questions like these without sounding horribly mean?

Caboose is a Backend as a Service (BaaS) that my friend and I built as a passion project. The idea is to drastically simplify the steps needed to build or prototype almost any type of application without compromising functionality and power. We built an experience that makes development simple and accessible by allowing you to develop and define your backends using plain old English. You can also extend anything we provide with JavaScript, Java, PHP, or Python.

While there might be some rough edges, please take a look and tell us what you think. We know there are a bunch of BaaS providers out there, but we feel the functionality and simplicity of Caboose makes it a stand out.

Is this any better than scala.js?

Hmmm weird. I think your account was created anyway, can you try to log in?

Caboose is a Backend as a Service (BaaS) that my friend and I built as a passion project. The idea is that there are so many common steps to build or prototype an application so why not make it super simple. We have built backend functionality to power almost any web or mobile app you can think of. Our UI makes development simple by allowing you to develop and define your backends using plain old English. You can also extend anything we provide with JavaScript, Java, PHP, or Python.

Please take a look and tell us what you think. I know there are a bunch of BaaS providers out there, but I feel the functionality and simplicity of caboose makes it stand out.

I'm very hypocritical.
Re:San Francisco Bubble on Friday January 29, 2016 @12:12PM (#10996536)
You're probably right. I was being a bit excessive with the beer comment, I just found it funny that I never recognized anything on tap. I'm also not really an IPA guy =/

No, it was a three day period in the middle of the week.

Isn't that a bit of a misnomer, they are integrating with existing delivery services. From the subject I figured they were providing their own? Either way... cool....
