History
CloudBoost evolved from a Parse app builder tool which helped developers to build apps on Parse by writing most of the boiler plate code. After releasing the Parse app builder tool, Nawaz found that the Parse service missed certain features which were needed by apps which were built today. Developers were using multiple data-stores to search, store and sync application data across their users. Nawaz decided to separate database and the real-time architecture that powered it, founding CloudBoost as a separate company in December 2014. CloudBoost raised $40,000 in seed funding in June, 2015 from Start-Up Chile.
NoSQL Database
CloudBoost provides a complete NoSQL database and backend as a service. The service provides application developers an API that allows application data to be searched, queried, and synchronized across clients and stored on CloudBoost's cloud. The company provides client libraries that enable integration with Android, iOS, JavaScript, Java, Objective-C and Node.js applications. The database is also accessible through a REST API and bindings for several JavaScript frameworks such as AngularJS, React, Ember.js and Backbone.js. The REST API uses the Server-Sent Events protocol, which is an API for creating HTTP connections for receiving push notifications from a server. Developers using the CloudBoost database can secure their data by using the company's server-side-enforced security rules.
