Sorry for the delay. We're working hard to get the public release ready!
>> Hi there, can you answer the following questions about data security,
>> accreditation & limits please.
>>
>> 1) Do you have any accreditation, eg: ISO 9001 / 27001?
We do not yet have either of those accreditations.
>> 2) What are the limits for API calls, uploading images etc?
During the free beta period we don't have any limits. After our public release we'll have a free tier that allows API, push notification, email sending, and storage usage up to a certain amount for dev, test, and initial app release. Beyond that we will require a credit card and will charge in increments depending on the amount of resources used in the month.
>> 3) Do you have any examples of your present architecture looks like, ie the
>> tiered architecture?
We've built the server backend that you would have had to build anyway for your app. That means a scalable, multi-tiered architecture built upon Amazon Web Services. We use MongoDB for the database and Solr for the search engine. We've written our own application logic to handle our predefined objects as well as enable you to define and use custom objects. For our push infrastructure we built a high-performance push server.

Another feature on our roadmap is the ability to launch private clusters.
thanks,
