Please provide Coronium product version, hosting provider, and OS.
Hello!
 
I was using (well, I still use ;) ) parse for most of my apps, and your mod_parse for my corona apps using Parse.
 
After friday's big shock, now it time to look for solutions, so I'm not sure which solution to choose between the big amount of available options.
 
I saw Coronium ACE, but I'm not sure if its mature enought for using it on a yet-on-prodution app, and I'm not sure neither if it can be used for replacing parse or has nothing to do.
 
An other option may be firebase + onesignal or pushwoosh for push notifications...
 
I'm looking for a working solution that generates the less headaches, as free as possible (they are apps for non-profits organisations), and as durable as possible, with the smaller impact on current apps, ...
 
I imagine I'm not only one with such question and a so high degree of insecurity, being afraid that neverminds which option I choose, it can be closed tomorrow! 
 
Thank you!

Hello!

Thank you for the links, but I keep not understanding exactly what coronium is for...

Why or when it is a better choice than Firebase + OneSignal, for example?

Which third party services are required and which is the average cost estimated for an small app (1000 users)?

On docs I found Digital Ocean, Pushbots, AWS. I asume free plan of pushbots will be ok. AWS has the first year for free, but then? Digital Ocean is free for 2 months, and then, which plan may be enough? Which third party services are mandatory and which optional?

Regards


Mariona Nadal

Answer depends on what those 1000 users will do of course but why not start with the lowest free tier and see how far you get. Coronium is very robust and will scale just nice. If your app grows you can just grow your server base. AWS or DO eitherway gets you to the same thing. Also note you can even run Coronium at home on a spare PC or Mac and get going totally free. You can use a service like dyndns to point your domain name to your home machine and have your 1000 users hit your home 'server'.

Ok, thank you, I think I will try with AWS... Looking again for pricing, today I found EC2 may be "from" $2-5 per month (http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/)... The pricing I found yesterday (for AWS) was of $3,000 per year, so it was not afrodable!
