Nhost. Backend-as-a-Service.

Make backend easy. Never manage infrastructure.

Nhost is a development platform and the open source GraphQL backend (an alternative to Firebase). What Netlify and Vercel do for the frontend, Nhost does for the backend.

Nhost offers a cutting-edge backend with the fundamental components needed to create amazing digital products.

Nhost's platform, which handles configuration, security, and performance, makes it simple to design and deploy backends. Everything just works and scales on its own, allowing us to concentrate on our product and business.

If we merely create a front end for our business, Nhost can handle the back end. There is no vendor lock-in time, and it offers storage, serverless authentication, graphQL APIs, and databases through Hasura.

With the Nhost quickstart template, we can launch the backend service in about 25 seconds. It creates files, and If react is being used in our project, it also react components, etc. App.js, index.js, env.local, and package.json are all built simply with npm start, saving time over manually creating them. Using Nhost apollo provider is beneficial in several ways. I could create a sign-up, and sign-in feature, and manage users for my app in no time.

The services provided are Database, GraphQL API, Authentication, Storage, Serverless Functions.

We can get a database and backend configured and ready in minutes so you can focus on your app and your users.
