I have a server of my own running locally on my wifi, on 0.0.0.0:5000.
I have built an app with the parse.com backend, and I want to link this server to Cloud Code, so I can call functions on it.
I am completely lost and don't know where to start to bring my server online with only Parse being able to access it and use its API.
Or am I better off renting a VPS and connecting to that?

I am new to wechat development, as I can see from the documentation it requires setting up a server, getting a domain and ssl certificate. I am developing an app that sends a request to a server, fetches pdf file from database and downloads that file to user's phone. Since I am using pdf, I need to store binary data, so VPS hosting should be the best option here. But I am not sure if I can use it for WeChat, I noticed in most documentation and tutorials developers are using cloud services.
Of course.whatever serve provider is.
I want my app in iOS to verify user phone numbers, but that would require that I write code in a place called Cloud Code in Parse. The Parse Server is hosted in Amazon Web Services but I cannot find exactly where the Cloud Code is. How could I access it?
I already tried looking it up and the closest thing I got is to use Webhooks in my Parse Dashboard- with no real success.
I built an app to offer a client of the company I work for that I deployed to Firebase. It uses Firebase storage for retrieving files as well as the realtime database. It's actually just the front-end portion of a two-app suite I made; the backend portion is used by an admin for uploading files, checking data, etc --- which data then becomes available to view over the frontend. Both use firebase.
It turns out the devices that would need to access the app (tablets mostly) are inside of an extranet with a server that can establish VPN connections only. Now I'm being asked how I can build the app so these devices can access the app.
I don't know much about the inner-workings of Firebase but it seems to me I may have couple of options:
1) Figure out how to make the FB database accessible over VPN (preferable)
2) Reconfigure the app to use something like MongoDB. Instead of deploying on a remote server, let the on-site server service the devices using the app. Send files that are needed by the server via FTP over the VPN, then process these files on-site.
Problem: I'm using a Mac and the on-site server uses Windows. It will be a pain to install things on a Windows machine remotely, let alone set up the VPN.
Any ideas? I'm sure there are parts of this question where I've made wrong assumptions --- I've never needed to do things over a VPN before.
This might sound completely stupid but I'm new to this.
Anyway, here's my question:
I have a virtual WordPress server (bitnami) running on VirtualBox. Currently it's in my local network with an IP of 192.168.43.11. With a Gravity Forms plugin for WordPress I made a survey website.
How do I attach my survey website to ServiceNow? I think I'm supposed to utilize Service Now Web Services, but I'm lost after that..
Do you know what version your ServiceNow instance is? If it's Eureka or later, you can use the REST API: https://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Getting_Started_with_REST. All tables are accessible for CRUD operations via the Table API.
If it's prior to Eureka (Dublin, Calgary, etc.) you can use SOAP: https://wiki.servicenow.com/index.php?title=Direct_Web_Services.
I have an cloud sql instance up and running and have made a link using a jdbc driver to the instance ip using android studio project. I can successfully run queries from an ip address that I insert manually into the google cloud sql settings and not any other network. This makes my app accessible only from certain ip addresses. Is there a way i can authenticate my google cloud sql to all ip addresses. I do not wish to use the google app engine if possible as I believe it will only complicate my application. My app works well enough is there an easy way to access my sql from any network having supplied my username and password in the code itself?
You can use the console to authorize 0.0.0.0, which will allow connections from any IP address. However, this is not necessarily a good solution. If you embed your database's username and password in your Android app, it can be found by someone else taking apart the apk. If they do that, they will then have complete access to your database. It is more complicated, but you should put some kind of server in front of your database, and have the user authenticate with that server/application, and only have that server communicate directly with your database.
