Modern cloud infrastructures decouple backend services from front end uses in order to be agile participants in the API economy. Since the institution has BAA in place for Azure, we'll use this environment to explore a couple of those services.
let's use it to expose formal API (defined using API languages) endpoints to the Node+Mongo services explored last week.

To explore the architectural argument that cloud infrastructures seek to integrate services like mongoDB into their core computational ecosystem let's visit Google firebase and Azure documentDB. Note how firebase integrates app development with noSQL with server-side events with client-side listeners. This is an architecture feature that is bound to in a mature cloud platforms. For Azure, the equivalent integration might be emerging with the app service. The open source equivalent is, as approached in previous sessions, meteor.

I know, not a month goes by without an new entry :-D. This one may be worth a lengthier look as it is aligned with teh maturation of another platform - github's. Here's the link, electron.atom.io, those using Atom editor may note that it was indeed developed using electron.
