I know that's stupid. We'll move it to the parent repo.
Let me know if this helps.
- Yes, it does bundle frameworks but more importantly, it bundles databases like Mongo, Elastic, Redis etc. The idea is we completely abstract databases away from you and give you an API which does everything. We handle the rest like data sync between these databases, managing databases, scaling, etc.
- We're on a "Pay as you go pricing". Let me know your thoughts on this.
- I completely agree, we dont have a release strategy and we need to work on it. You'll see GitHub releases every week within few weeks from now. Thank you for the feedback.
- We have a Docker implementation which will make your sign up process easier. Please check : https://github.com/cloudboost/docker
- One of the visions of the product is to learn how your app uses the service and how your app queries the db - and auto optimize data between databases, so you never have to think about storing your data in different types of databases ever again.
Thank you for your feedback again. This helped a lot.
I think Deepstream does Realtime and CloudBoost does a lot more - like Search, ACL's, RealTime, BLOB, JSON, and a whole lot more. You can also check out : https://cloudboost.io/compare
The idea is as a developer - You don't really have to care about about "Which database you should actually store your data in?" and this is why we have machine learning service that actually learns how you store and how you query your data and figures out the database where your data should naturally belong.
As a developer, You only care about storing your data and getting your data back, and that's what we enable you to do.
Let me know if this helps, and feel free to reach out to nawaz@cloudboost.io if you need any more information / help.
Value Props :
#1 - We have one API, that automatically detects how you query your data, and how you store and depending on it, We store your data into Redis, mongo, elastic search , orient db, etc.
#2 - You don't have to learn any of these, all you have to do is play around with a simple SDK.
#3 - You don't want to manage your data in multiple db's which most of the big guys do. As an indie developer you have the power of what big guys have. For ex : Stackoverflow uses Redis + ElasticSearch + SQL. We don't expect an indie to learn all of these.
#4 - Query time is theoretically fast, because we leverage multiple db's at once.
#2 - We don't intend to target the dev community. We're more towards people who have no idea how web works.
#3 - You can git clone the repo and make changes either to the UI or the business logic. So, in a way you're not restricted to the product. You can make CloudBoost.io do all the mundane tasks for you - and then git clone the repo - and make changes.
We're working hard to make sure its so flexible that you wont even need to git clone the repo - but it'll take time to mature over time.

Most of these tasks are mundane, take a lot of time to build, test, debug, and deploy. We automate all of that for you. All you do is - drag and drop few things around and our AI engine will build an app + the UI (That'll amaze you for sure) in minutes - saving you weeks of your life. If you want to add features or pivot - Its simple, takes few minutes to edit and publish. We will not be a compelling product during our alpha, but we will mature over time (in a few months).
Let us know if this sounds exciting, If it does - signup for our alpha program at http://www.cloudboost.io /
Thanks a ton for your time. :)
