In this article, we are comparing costs required to host the complete Parse solution (Parse Server + Database) in two different configurations. The first configuration covers small apps and the second covers scaling / large apps.
Small Apps – Will detail the structure required for starting apps with less than ten requests/second and minimum server-side processing.
Large and Scaling Apps – Will detail the structure required for scaling and large apps with more than 10 API requests per second.
Building a new API and running it on production environment demands not only dedicated developers but also adequate infrastructure. Parse.com is a BaaS – Backend as a Service provider (Infrastructure + Backend) and hosts the infrastructure at Amazon Web Services cloud. The open source version of Parse.com (Parse Server) can be hosted on various types of infrastructure.
The article does not answer the title why is it so expensive.
