urBackend
Instant Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) Platform
urBackend is an Instant Backend-as-a-Service platform that lets developers spin up a full backend — databases, auth, storage, and mail — without writing any server code. It ships with a developer dashboard, API key management, schema validation, and a growing SDK ecosystem.
- Engineered AES-256-GCM encrypted database connections with a dynamic connection manager, preventing memory leaks at scale.
- Built a Redis caching layer that reduced authentication API response times by 70% — from 500ms down to 150ms — by offloading MongoDB reads.
- Implemented atomic MongoDB operations for quota management, ensuring zero race conditions on plan limits under concurrent load.
- Decoupled infrastructure into independent internal and public APIs, allowing safe scaling of developer-facing routes separately.
- Selected as official GSSoC'2026 open-source project — 40+ forks, 30 stars, 40+ PRs reviewed from 25+ external contributors worldwide.
