Fanout vs LeanCloud: What are the differences?
Fanout: Realtime APIs made simple. Fanout makes it easy to build realtime APIs and apps. The product is a cross between a reverse proxy and a message broker. Receivers subscribe to channels, and published data is delivered in realtime; LeanCloud: Leading serverless cloud service. LeanCloud is a complete and mature solution for both the stateless and stateful components of your backend.
Fanout and LeanCloud are primarily classified as "Realtime Backend / API" and "Cloud Management" tools respectively.
Some of the features offered by Fanout are:
- Reverse proxy -- integrate realtime with any level of your technology stack, not just your front end.
- Interoperable -- Add realtime to any API, no matter your backend or database, without changing any of your existing API contracts.
- Open -- cloud or self hosted, it’s up to you. We don’t believe in vendor lock-in.
On the other hand, LeanCloud provides the following key features:
- Multi-node coverage
- Cross-region access acceleration
- Flexible pricing
