MBaaS stands for mobile back-end as a service. This is a model for providing web and mobile app developers with a way to link their applications to back-end cloud storage and also providing features such as user management, push notifications, and integration with social networking services etc.

These services are provided via the use of custom software development kits (SDKs) and application programming interfaces (APIs). BaaS is a relatively recent development in cloud computing. MBaaS providers form a bridge between the front-end of an application and various cloud-based backends via a unified API and SDK.

Can message and/or task queues be used with dreamfactory or other BAAS?
