RapidSDK

RapidSDK is a Backend as a Service platform that eliminates the need for app developers to build custom backend solutions for their apps. Development of server-side components is expensive, repetitive, and distracts from perfecting your app. Let us handle it so you can focus on making your app awesome.

Introduction to Mobile BAAS (Backend-As-A-Service)

When you are working on a new project and you don’t have time to develop a custom backend for your application, you can use BAAS tools like Firebase, Kivey or RapidSDK. In this July Denver Droids Meetup, Sage will delve into the details of using these tools to speed up your application development process. -Authentication -CRUD Operations -Dashboard Reports -Push Notifications About Sage Conger Sage is a Software Engineer at DUBTEL in Englewood, specializing in Mobile Application development and community support.

The State of Back-end Frameworks

The state of cloud hosting and backend frameworks has never been more exciting. As developers create apps that push the limits of backend hosting and users expect their data to be accessible anywhere, it has never been more important to have a strong backend framework. Users Expect Perfection Thanks to services such as Dropbox and iCloud, users are less forgiving than ever before when it comes to access to their data. Your backend framework needs to be robust enough to avoid any data loss, security holes, or other common issues with backend frameworks. Users don’t care that your API is still being fleshed out for bugs. All they care about is that their data is being stored securely and is accessible anywhere. That’s where our backend APIs come in. Our API library is mature and in active development. Moving Toward Convenience A growing trend not just in API frameworks, but also in programming languages in general is a movement toward convenient and easy-to-learn syntax such as Kotlin. If you have to learn obscure API calls and unnatural hacks around a poorly-developed API, then you may as well build your own backend framework. At RapidSDK we’ve worked hard to make our API library as intuitive as possible. Because the API calls are intuitive and easy-to-learn, you’ll be able to swiftly integrate our framework into your app so you can get right back to developing your own app. The state of backend frameworks is exciting and moving quickly. We can’t wait to see what innovations and trends are yet to come.

M-BAAS (Mobile Backend As A Service)

Thanks to the recent explosion in the development of mobile applications, consumers and enterprise customers have an extremely high demand for productivity apps. They are seeking an attractive user experience tailored to their devices and business needs. To meet the increasing expectations of this growing market, mobile app developers must build quickly and also be creative and innovative to stay competitive. The  is quickly becoming an increasing key factor for mobile startups and traditional firms. Currently, mobile app developers build individual custom backend API solutions to support each of their mobile app projects. RapidSDK provides developers with a single, cost effective API solution for developing on all mobile platforms and projects. RapidSDK exposes a REST interface that is used by several major Cloud Mobile API Services today. Due to its lightweight design, REST Services provide faster data access methods over other technologies. Amazon and Facebook both use REST API Services to support their mobile applications.  Uber, Twitter, Instagram, Google and Lyft all use REST services. Single sign-on solutions created for the web are too heavyweight for mobile devices, but their underlying policies and infrastructure are available in the RapidSDK Cloud API. RapidSDK supports OAuth, the security protocol of choice in the mobile world.  OAuth bridges the gap between the integration and security needs of mobile devices and existing proven enterprise services and policies. Companies are using the RapidSDK at the core of their API management solution for secure mobile app integration with their enterprise systems. RapidSDK will power your mobile apps with suitable security, reliability and performance.
