Hey folks,
Developing an app that stores user entered data. If the user were to login from another device, his information needs to come up, so obviously I need a database that's in "the cloud" (god I hate saying that).
So, my first thoughts are Amazon S3 for storing the data. My concern though is that Amazon charges by amount of data being transferred. If I charge say 2.99 for an app, if after 6 months that user has transferred enough data to cost 2.99, then after the first 6 months his app is costing me money every time it's run.
What do people typically do for simple apps and data storage? Can't imagine that ads are the best way to go? Is there a different provider other than Amazon that people typically use?
Thanks
