Honestly, this is the reason why I think Google's Firebase (and accompanying Firestore database) is absolute gold.

Firebase handles all the complexity for you. You get a nice set of JS SDKs for auth, database, cloud functions, file storage and static hosting.

And the best part is how damn cheap it is.

No fussing with low-level Redis clusters or paying for things on the edge. It all 'just works' and it does it fast.

I'd be interested more in Firebase if I could specify a SQL schema. I don't want to work around the headaches of a document store...
