[Full disclosure: I'm a FT Couchbase mobile developer] Agree 100% -- Parse deserves huge kudos for that move. Ex-Parse customers should definitely check out Couchbase Mobile, which has some functionality overlap with Parse and is already open source with several repos on github: https://github.com/couchbase/sync_gateway https://github.com/couchbase/couchbase-lite-ios https://github.com/couchbase/couchbase-lite-android At least you won't have to worry about getting "Parsed".

You might be interested in https://github.com/couchbase/sync_gateway which is the Couchbase Mobile access control and sync layer (compatible with PouchDB etc). It has fine grained access control based on a channel metaphor. And it's also written in Go, so you might be interested in using parts of it. Specifically if you wrap your storage layer in a facade that looks like https://github.com/couchbaselabs/walrus you'll be able to use our suite of storage layers, and we'll be able to use yours. That means it'd be trivial to swap out your storage for something scalable like Couchbase Server, or something tiny and embedded like ForestDB or RocksDB.

We've done a few of them here. Notably: * http://cbgb.io/ * http://dustin.github.io/2012/09/09/seriesly.html * https://github.com/couchbaselabs/sync_gateway cbgb is an API compatible Couchbase implementation in go. We use it in place of couchbase when we need something tiny to play around with. seriesly is a time series database for storing and aggregating sample data and doing things like this: http://bleu.west.spy.net/~dustin/seriesly/ sync_gateway is how our mobile team synchronizes data across all your phones and tablets and your central DB.
