Cloud Computing Cloud computingis a model for enabling convenient, on- demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/legacy/sp/nistspecialpublication800-145.pdf

- 12. History of firebase •Originally firebase was online chat message integration service. • Later the real time architecture was separated to create firebase database in 2012. • Firebase surfaced as a popular choice when Parse.com went down. • Google acquired firebase in 2014 and added a whole lot of features in Google IO-2016. • Firebase is now a complete cloud solution.
- 14. Firebase Hosting • Firebasehosting provides a fast and secure static hosting for your web app. • It is a production grade web content hosting. • CDN edges around the world • Hosting gives a subdomain of “firebaseapp.com” • You can also get a custom domain. • Free SSL certificate • Install firebase CLI • Also suited for SPA/Progressive web apps • Version controlled
- 15. Not Suited For •Dynamic web pages (Node.js) • use Cloud functions with Node.js instead • Server-Side Applications (PHP, JAVA, and so on) • use Google Cloud Platform instead • Authentication • use Firebase Auth instead • Authorization • use Real Time and Storage security rules instead • Heavy files • Firebase Storage recommended

- 17. Firebase console • Googlehas several "consoles". • These are webpages to control varying things. • Other Examples: • https://partner.android.com/things/console#/ android things • https://console.developers.google.com/apis/ for apis like maps • https://developers.google.com/beacons/dashboard/ for beacons • Firebase has its own as well: • https://console.firebase.google.com/
- 18. • Create aFirebase account and a Firebase app - https://firebase.google.com • Links your google account • Optionally link a google cloud account – The Firebase SDKs for Cloud Storage store files directly in Google Cloud Storage buckets Firebaseaccount
