Firebase provides real-time database, authentication, hosting, cloud functions, and analytics. The original BaaS platform. Still popular despite Supabase's rise.

Traefik is a cloud-native reverse proxy with automatic service discovery for Docker, Kubernetes, and more. Dynamic configuration without restart.
Reviewer scorecard
“Authentication, Firestore, and Cloud Functions get you from zero to production fast. The free tier is generous.”
“Auto-discovers services from Docker labels or K8s ingress. Dynamic configuration without reloads is the killer feature.”
“Firestore's limitations become painful at scale. Supabase with Postgres is the modern alternative.”
“For Docker and K8s environments, Traefik's auto-discovery eliminates proxy configuration entirely.”
“Firebase defined BaaS but Supabase's open-source, Postgres-based approach is the future.”
“Service mesh and API gateway convergence is happening. Traefik is well-positioned at that intersection.”
