Backendless

Backendless is a visual backend-as-a-service (BaaS) platform that lets developers and no-code builders create app backends — complete with a database, business logic, user management and APIs — with little or no code. It provides the server-side foundation that apps need, from data storage and real-time database capabilities to authentication, file storage, push notifications and custom logic, all manageable through a visual interface, so teams can build and run powerful backends without setting up and maintaining their own servers and infrastructure.

The platform combines a flexible database, user and security management, file storage, real-time messaging and push notifications with a visual logic builder (Codeless) that lets you create business logic and API endpoints without writing code — while still allowing custom code for those who want it. This blend of no-code and pro-code makes Backendless accessible to a wide range of builders, from non-developers creating app backends to developers who want to move faster. You can host on Backendless's cloud or self-host (managed or on your own infrastructure), giving flexibility around control and deployment.

Backendless is used by app developers, no-code builders and businesses that need a capable backend for their web and mobile apps and want to build it quickly without managing infrastructure. By providing the full set of backend capabilities — data, logic, auth, files, real-time and APIs — in a visual, flexible platform, it removes much of the heavy lifting of backend development and lets teams focus on their app. Its support for both visual and code-based development makes it versatile across skill levels. As demand for building apps quickly continues to grow and teams seek to avoid backend complexity, comprehensive BaaS platforms remain valuable. For developers and builders who want a visual, full-featured backend for their apps — with database, logic, auth and APIs, and the option of little or no code — Backendless offers a capable, flexible and long-established solution.
