Firebase Opens Its Real-Time App Infrastructure To All Developers

When Y Combinator-backed Firebase first announced its app infrastructure service last April, it saw 4,000 developer sign-ups in the first week and raised a $1.1 million round shortly afterwards. Since then, co-founder James Tamplin said the company has been quietly bringing on more developers and improving the technology ? and today it's launching its public beta, giving any interested developer access to the service. Firebase grew out of the chat service Envolve. Tamplin told me last year that he realized there's a bigger opportunity in making the real-time infrastructure used by apps like Envolve available to all developers, so they can "build apps really, really fast without worrying about servers or writing server code."
