What is a Firebase and How does it work?

Firebase is Google’s real-time database that helps you quickly develop your mobile apps. It is a standalone solution that updates user-generated content like videos and images from android, iOS, and web-based devices. Firebase Cloud Storage has been designed precisely to scale your apps, ensure network resiliency, and provide security.

The firebase data appears as JSON files and lets real-time changes to occur on the linked client side. When you create cross-platform apps using Android, iOS, or JavaScript SDKs, your clients end up receiving all the data that was updated.

You can use Firebase Cloud Space when you have a short development time. Firebase allows users to create a prototype in very little time. It avoids messing with data storage and servers to a great extent.

You can use Firebase Cloud Messaging free of cost, just like Google Cloud Messaging. Besides, you can use Analytics for innovative messaging.
