I think Firebase's position is a bit more defensible -- Google has done well to ingratiate Firebase as a backend for angular apps.

  The news i have heard from various googlers is, `GOOG acquired Firebase because a project started using Firebase as backend and grew very fast and they didn't want to migrate and just acquired FireBase`.

    This is not even remotely true. Disclaimer: I work on Google Cloud but not Firebase.
