What it takes to build a backend
This is how simple development projects can become complex
Handling infrastructure tasks comes with big costs
Server hardware, networking equipment, cloud resources, and paid software licenses quickly add up.
- As your project grows, your costs increase
- Difficult to scale and allocate server resources
Too many dev tools take the fun away from the building
Communication gaps, messy development tickets, and inconsistent documentation often result in deployment mistakes.
- No time to build the features that matter most
- Navigating dev tickets takes the fun away from development
Ready-to-go backend 5 times cheaper and faster
Build, test, deploy, and scale applications more quickly and cost-effectively
Rapid app development
Why code from scratch when you can drag and drop flexible components to get there sooner? Everything from logic flows to automations is developed in a simple visual way, without coding or extensive setups.
Choose any front-end stack
You can choose any coding framework or technology to build the front-end. Enjoy full flexibility and control of user experience, while the development platform handles all the infrastructure tasks.
Integration everywhere
Integrate with any API and publish across different platforms. Easily create and manage API endpoints in ondeva for sharing data, complete with custom configurations and documentation, including HTTP response status.

How is the backend built?
Backend-as-a-Service is an application that allows developers to outsource all backend-related development tasks.
Servers and Hosting
Servers and hosts handle requests, run the information between the client computer, and manage network resources. BaaS takes care of updates, backups, and security of servers so developers don’t have to worry about these tasks. With serverless BaaS functionality, developers only pay for the resources their application uses. It’s like paying for each app event rather than having a fixed monthly plan.
Database
The database is a basic backend-as-a-service functionality. The application stores data in memory, and a database is built to call for and reuse this data. The relational database helps establish and maintain connections between the many app entities (for example, users, posts, and comments). Some BaaS offer advanced schema-less databases. These databases don’t have a predefined schema, so the data doesn’t need to be in any particular format.
API and Middleware
Developers use APIs, a set of methods and data formats, to allow different applications to communicate with each other. Middleware is a software layer between an operating system and its applications. In today’s interconnected world, the backend is expected to interact seamlessly with front-end apps and other systems via an API.
Storage
Most BaaS store media files, user uploads, and other data in the cloud. The files can be uploaded, downloaded, and deleted through SDKs or APIs. You can configure custom policies for file uploads and listen to storage events.
User Authentication
Involves verifying user identities so the application knows who you are. Based on the sessions, user authentication can be basic or more complex. It also includes user administration, where the developer can assign user roles or restrict access.
A developer-focused platform that simplifies development
ondeva allows developers to build backends with lightning speed
Managed infrastructure
Everything you need to create, test, deploy, and scale your web application at your fingertips. You don’t need multiple licenses and development tools, which saves you time and costs.
Scalable servers and storage
Servers are managed on our side with the ability to scale up and down. Reliable service that can handle fluctuating traffic and meet your performance demands.
Continuous integration & delivery
Your application is always up-to-date and ready to be deployed without the need to manage multiple development environments.
Database management
A powerful data service to help you get started faster. Upload datasets, build tables, and manage data in compliance with GDPR. On the front end, you can provide dynamic data updates to users via graphics, maps, and CSV downloads.
Visual setup
Design pages, construct backend logic, data tables, and APIs visually with no code required. With a visual builder, you can deploy your app faster. Everything from logic flows to automations is developed in a simple visual way.
Collaboration
Add team members and build collaboratively. You can assign roles and define the visibility of the app’s areas. Coordinate tasks in your team based on each member’s development or business experience.

ondeva and backend development FAQs
Find answers to the most common questions about ondeva and building with low-code tools
BaaS is an application that allows developers to outsource all backend development tasks including database management, authentication as a service, hosting and storage, push notifications, and more.
MBaaS is BaaS for mobile applications. It provides the same functionality as BaaS but with extended features for apps: a database for iOS and android, location services, mobile analytics, and SDKs tailored to mobile platforms.
IaaS provides virtual computers as a service, including storage, computing, and networks. Made for system administrators and DevOps, it allows for a higher level of control than BaaS.
PaaS typically provides full-stack development capabilities, including development tools, database management, business analytics, and more. It has a slightly lower level of abstraction than BaaS. PaaS gives developers more control and flexibility, while BaaS is all about convenience.
FaaS (Function-as-a-Service) is part of the serverless computing infrastructure. It allows developers to execute code in response to events without managing the infrastructure. With Faas, individual functions can be deployed and executed on demand, scaling automatically.
SaaS providers provide applications to customers, which they host and run. This eliminates the need to install and run applications on the customers’ computers or their data centers, reducing acquisition, installation, and maintenance costs.
