How to use parse.com?

Question

With the parse.with it is necessary to pass my database to their website?

I have a database on the company server, and I don’t intend to put it on their website. They offer the option to access my database other than through their website?

For example whenever 1 column is added to my database a notification appears in my app?

By the way parse is completely free or has for example an x number of notifications that can be sent and after that number becomes a premium member?

Answer 1

Parse is a cloud sdk for fast application development. With it you can store data, send notifications, emails, control installations and a lot more things the app needs.

It is not necessary to store your company data there, you can simply send notifications Push for your customers when you find it convenient straight from your system.

So that the push it is necessary to include the parse SDK in your mobile project and register the instalation. The website has a step by step, if you follow you will manage to do without any problem. I’ve done it myself for android and Ios, it’s really easy.

As for the limits the parse has some plans here. Personally I have always used, and use until today, and never paid anything, however it counts the amount of accesses to the API and may charge you if you send many monthly requests, so this will be of your common sense.

One thing you didn’t ask, but I’ll tell you, parse has a big latency problem, so it’s not very good at storing data that needs to be searched and loaded all the time. Use sparingly.
