Hi,
I am looking for a way to keep my users’ profile and app data within the EU, but I keep using Bubble without a dedicated server. I was wondering whether your Firebase plugin will allow me to do it (in Firebase I can choose my region).
Hello, @a.kumpin
Thanks for reaching out.
Please note that information about your users will be stored in the Bubble DataBase.Bubble provides the hosting for you with the Bubble application. It’s included within the free and paid plans with different perks depending on the selected tier. Note, it’s currently not possible to self-host a Bubble app/site.
Here you can see what it is possible for different Bubble Plans: Pricing | Bubble
However, you can use another platform for transferring information from your Bubble app.Firebase plugin helps to keep the database up at all times and makes sure all the user authentications are done in a very seamless manner without any interruptions and users get a very smooth experience. This makes it easy for any of your users to access their data from any device, web or mobile, and it helps them collaborate with one another.
Please check the documentation for this plugin: Firebase Realtime Database
In case you have any additional questions - let me know.
Best regards,
Thank you very much. So if I understand correctly: your plugin is not built to replace the bubble database, but more to synchronise it with Firebase so it is possible to easily use it in other systems.
Hello, @a.kumpin
Yes, you are right. Working on the Bubble platform, you can’t replace its DB, but you can keep your data in other storages and just retrieve it, according to your workflow.
You can check not only the Firebase plugin but more of the plugins, which provides storage functionality (like AWS, Box.com, Wasabi and etc.).
In case you need more assistance - don’t hesitate to let me know.
Best regards,
