Back-End: How To Internet-Enable Your App?

Is your app connected to the internet? Creating a custom back-end with server-side languages like NodeJS, Ruby or PHP can take lots of time, money and effort. It's easier to use a Platform-as-a-Service tool, such as Parse.

Parse is a cloud-based solution for storing data offline and online in your app. Say you're making a social app with a stream of pictures and status updates. You could use Parse to store that data in the cloud and use their SDK to get it from and to your users. Using a tool such as Parse completely removes the need to build a custom back-end. Parse's basic usage tier is free, while subsequent tiers start at $ 100 USD a month.

Alternatives to Parse are Appcelerator (middleware + PaaS, commercial) and App42 (PaaS + analytics, free tier).
