[BaaS] Backend as a service for free

After I blog about Free push notification and then dig deeper for other alternative competitor I suddenly found that it's plenty a lot more free Backend as a service (BaaS) out there with also provide not just million of push notification but also free cloud service and else!

Provider	Push Noti per month	API calls per month	Storage	E-mails	Users
Appcelerator	5M	5M	20GB	100,000/month	unlimited
Kinvey	1M	unlimited	unlimited	-	100
Stackmob	1M	unlimited	Amazon S3 5GB	200/day	unlimited
Parse	1M	1M	1GB +500 images	200/day	unlimited
Backendless	200,000	unlimited	2GB	-	100

I will collect all BaaS here for reference and compare, I did try all of them and my suggestion (for now) is Parse.com which is just has been take over by Facebook after I try it for 2 days ;p

The good thing for this all services is they all support REST/RESTful API and JSON which really mean Flash/AIR dude can be use their API without any headache.

And like always, any suggestion for other competitor is open and welcome! :)

PS : I'll try keep this table comparison accurate as possible, but for real life use please recheck for pricing plan at service provider page.

UPDATE 1 : as Nick Collins mention, I just add backendless to the list, if you didn't push notification that much and want minor adjust for each $ you spend, this one is perfect for you :)

UPDATE 2 : Thanks  for correction via comment below, Kinvey has "unlimited" storage for free, so it's a good time for us to fill it up though! ;)

[xcode] Free Push Notification Service

Push notification is another weapon that I didn't dig deep into it because none of my client ask for it just yet, but to be good developer you must collect weapon and be prepare for next war (which client from hell LOL)

Free tools is good for indies and kickstarter, Many of services become free to try out which is great. I accidentally run into this push notification service https://pushwizard.com/

and after take look at pricing page I found out that it's really interesting free plan offered there.

I will do "in deep" review for this API like usual (they kind enough to let me try (some of) their API), and that should take some (of my free) time.

BTW, anyone want an Free ANE for this one? Please leave comment below more than 10 requests should be enough for headache ;)

PS : like always, anyone got alternate competitive Push Notification Service please leave comment below (even DIY solution is welcome, I'm always seeking for the best) I will take a look and try compare pros and cons here.

Happy Coding :)

UPDATE : Even more free service as BaaS!
