Is it ethical, (and also legal) to use Parse.com or a MBaaS in a way that I can create apps for businesses, by creating a separate account for each business? For example, to limit the amount of requests that my one account makes, I wouldn't put 10 different business apps on the same parse account, rather, I would create 10 separate accounts for each of the 10 businesses and log into the respective one when I need to.

If not, what is the recommended solution to create a scale-able MBaaS that could handle such usage, because I heard Parse is a great solution for small apps, but when your requests start to build up (Which they would if I have 50 businesses all going through me) that the costs increase exponentially more than other MBaaS providers.

I am looking for the most ethical, and clean (and preferably low-cost) way to do this, to just get my business on it's feet. I look forward to any suggestions! Thanks.

That's a great question. It would be annoying to have 10 separate logins, that's for sure. I'm not certain what the answer is but I wouldn't suggest creating 10 dif accounts.

If scalability and price are your major concerns I'd be happy to try and help you out. I work with another MBaaS, CloudMine. Costs are clearly important to you because you're just starting out but you also don't want to end up paying for something that you won't receive support on.

I have some great introductory pricing that may be a good fit for you. I can't exactly answer your question but I can offer a suggestion for a platform if you're open to other options. If you're interested in learning more I'm happy to provide some more info.

cheers

Just so I understand, you are looking to have a single BaaS account and have a number of sub-app accounts under that... if so there are a few multi-tenant mBaaS solutions out there that do that. Some also give you separate logins per app, so if your building apps for others you can let them log in and see data on the app.

Kumulos does this, it may work for you. www.kumulos.com
