Frequently asked questions

헤드리스 CMS와 BaaS(Backend-as-a-Service)의 차이점은 무엇인가요?

헤드리스 CMS는 콘텐츠 관리와 사용자 정의 콘텐츠 유형을 통한 API 자동 생성에 집중합니다. 반면 BaaS는 인증, 실시간 데이터베이스, 앱 로직을 위한 클라우드 함수 등 더 광범위한 도구 모음을 제공합니다.

이미 사용 중인 Postgres 데이터베이스가 있어도 이 플랫폼들을 사용할 수 있나요?

네. 여러 옵션을 통해 기존 Postgres 데이터베이스를 실제 서비스에 바로 사용할 수 있는 REST 또는 GraphQL API로 변환할 수 있습니다. 일부는 데이터를 관리할 수 있도록 스프레드시트와 유사한 인터페이스를 제공하기도 합니다.

복잡한 서버 측 로직을 구축하려면 코딩을 할 줄 알아야 하나요?

반드시 그렇지는 않습니다. 어떤 플랫폼들은 서버 코드를 작성하지 않고도 시각적 워크플로우나 노코드 인터페이스를 통해 로직을 구축할 수 있게 해줍니다. 개발자를 위해 설계되어 TypeScript나 사용자 정의 함수를 사용하는 다른 옵션들도 있습니다.

이 플랫폼들은 실시간 데이터 업데이트를 어떻게 처리하나요?

이러한 옵션 중 상당수는 데이터를 프론트엔드에 자동으로 동기화하는 내장 실시간 기능을 포함하고 있습니다. 이는 지속적인 수동 새로고침 없이 즉각적인 업데이트가 필요한 앱에 매우 유용합니다.
