Backend API

KintoHub can host and scale any backend API for public requests or internal service to service requests. Each backend API gets a public https endpoint and internal endpoint for communication. Usually, backend APIs perform business logic such as registering or authenticating users or calculating the top 100 users on a leaderboard.
