		st3v3r on Jan 30, 2017 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Parse is shutting down today Facebook bought it. Parse was highly coupled to AWS at the time. They spent some 3 years trying to get it to run on Facebook's cloud, and apparently failed to do so. Facebook decided to cut their losses, and shut it down.

We did have many technical challenges (as would be expected, really) but that wasn't why it ultimately went away.

Parse is not that challenging that you can't reimplement it in any platform you choose, especially in 3 yrs.
