First, we're releasing a
database migration tool that lets you migrate data from your Parse app to any MongoDB database. During this migration, the Parse API will continue to operate as usual based on your new database, so this can happen without downtime. Second, we're releasing the open source
Parse Server, which lets you run most of the Parse API from your own Node.js server. Once you have your data in your own database, ParseServer lets you keep your application running without major changes in the client-side code. For more details, check out our migration guide
here.
We know that many of you have come to rely on Parse, and we are striving to make this transition as straightforward as possible. We enjoyed working with each of you, and we have deep admiration for the things you've built. Thank you for using Parse.
