Parse, The Mobile Back-End Startup, Comes Out Of Beta With 10,000 Developers Aboard

parseshotParse, the San Francisco-based startup that's trying to bill itself as the "Heroku of mobile," is coming out of the gate with some nice momentum.The company, which streamlines the development process for mobile apps by letting developers basically outsource their application's server-side backend, is coming out of beta today. There are more than 10,000 developers who have signed up including 955 Dreams, which is behind those immersive iPad apps like Band of the Day and The History of Jazz. The company adds that those numbers are growing at about 40 percent month-over-month."There's this trend underway with apps increasingly resting on web services. Years ago, people said you would be crazy to run your apps in the cloud," said Tikhon Bernstam, who co-founded Parse after co-founding Scribd. "The next step is cloud platform dedicated to mobile apps. This is totally inevitable given AWS (Amazon Web Services) and Heroku."
