I've hosted my FB apps on Github up to this date but am very pleased to see they have added the features that a go beyond a simple static site deployment. I'm especially excited about the SSL support.

#73Why firebase doesn't provide pro-rated refunds on downgrades or refunds? It seems indirectly that locks an unhappy user in. Not cool.
Re: Introducing Firebase Hosting
#74It seems like firebase is good if you're making a CRUD app. But if yours is media heavy with pictures and video, using something a little lower level is needed.

#75I've built some client / server syncing code for a while, and never wondered to check for papers on that subject ( since i did it in a wqy specific to my model each time). What those guys are doing seem quite generic. Are there any famous algorithms for multi end-point data syncing ? I suppose it's related to the ditributed database research field...
Most real-time frameworks like Wave and Derby use Operational Transformation. http://www.waveprotocol.org/whitepapers/operational-transfor... http://blog.derbyjs.com/2013/06/04/derby-v0-dot-5-0/ (Edit: Apparently Meteor does not use OT; yet another reason it's behind Derby.)
What are the other reasons it's behind Derby?

The last 1/3 of my talk at last year's Strange Loop was on the data structures used in the Couch world for multi master sync. http://www.infoq.com/presentations/sync-mobile-data
Also google CRDT

Server-side rendering, npm support, etc.

#78Very cool! I just built and deployed a real-time voting app in literally 10 minutes.

#79How do integrate business logic on the back end ? Do we implement EventSource / Server-Sent Events protocol and have a server on our back end that is basically the logic server ? Also have any one done a C# wrapper for your REST layer ?
