Firebase provides real-time database, authentication, hosting, cloud functions, and analytics. The original BaaS platform. Still popular despite Supabase's rise.
Reviewer scorecard
“Serverless-specific observability that understood Lambda, Workers, and Vercel. Now part of Cloudflare's platform.”
“Authentication, Firestore, and Cloud Functions get you from zero to production fast. The free tier is generous.”
“The acquisition validates the approach. Serverless needs purpose-built observability, not adapted APM tools.”
“Firestore's limitations become painful at scale. Supabase with Postgres is the modern alternative.”
“Observability built into the platform (Cloudflare, Vercel) rather than bolted on is the right direction.”
“Firebase defined BaaS but Supabase's open-source, Postgres-based approach is the future.”
