s5
Super Stupid Simple Storage Service
Do you have a frontend, but no backend? A mobile app, but no database? A side project, but don't want to deal with servers?
Why s5 is Actually Smart
Lightning Fast
Store and retrieve your JSON documents faster than you can say "where did I put that API key?"
Secure by Default
Your data is safer than your grandmother's secret cookie recipe. API keys, encryption, and all that jazz.
Dead Simple API
RESTful endpoints so clean, even your cat could use them. (We don't recommend letting your cat use APIs though.)
JSON Native
Store, query, and manipulate JSON like a boss. No more wrestling with SQL for your nested data.
Version Control
Track changes like a pro. Every update gets a version number, so you can always blame the previous version.
Fair Pay
No hidden fees, no surprise bills, no sales pitches. Just seriously cheap straight-forward pricing.
