Hey those are great questions. To answer them in list order: 1) You currently can't use Oracle DB with Scaphold. We have a hosted database that comes along with each app right from the get-go. 2) There is support for websockets through GraphQL Subscriptions. Each new type that you create in your schema will expose the ability to subscribe to events of that type. 3) There are a bunch of PaaS services that exist out there, but the speed at which you build apps on Scaphold is undoubtedly faster. We give you the ability to think about your data in a modular way by appending large pieces of functionality to your app without having to write any server-side code. But you also get the flexibility to bind your custom logic to the same API through your own hosted microservices. Out of any BaaS platform on the market, we provide the most feature-rich platform that can actually help you launch into production and scale to large workflows. So far we already have a few large customers aboard and growing fast. If you're interested to hear more about our feature set, I'd love to chat with you more directly about your specific use cases and see how we can address those. Feel free to join our Slack and PM me directly (http://slack.scaphold.io http://slack.scaphold.io). I'm @vince
