Backbeam.io and other backend services NSSpain, September 2013 Alberto Gimeno

This place is awesome ? Some great pub Even a
simple app needs to share data including geolocated data, user generated content, user authentication, etc.
So you need to build an infrastructure behind your app.
You need to build a database, a web service,...
A control panel to be able to see and administrate
the data of your service
You need to implement the users authentication mechanism: integrating with
Facebook, Twitter, Google+, allowing to signup with email +password, implement password recovery, etc.
You will probably need to send mails and take care
that they don’t fall in the spam folder
You will need to implement Push Notifications for iOS and
Android, take care of devices no longer active, send notifications to many devices at once,...
You need to monitor the servers, scale, do backups, install
server software upgrades,...
This place is awesome Some great pub And this is
just a very simple app!
And your app evolves • Change the database schema •
Update the control panel • Modify the web service • Deploy or fetch the changes • Then code the actual feature!
