Firebase Hosting on own server

I am looking for a solution for developing iOS and Android chat to replace our current (unreliable, maybe poorly written by previous devs) XMPP/OpenFire chat. I came across Firebase which looks good. However, I don't quite get the setup for it.

Can I host Firebase on my own server and not have to subscribe to any of Firebase's plans?

Probably to late to be of any help but an alternative is RethinkDb. It is an open source realtime database and can be installed on your own machines. Never used it myself just researching my options like you.

Firebase offers a few products:

  • the Firebase realtime database
  • Firebase hosting (for hosting static resources)
  • Firebase authentication

I think you are looking for the Firebase realtime database.

There is no way currently to host the Firebase realtime database on your own servers.
