移动应用的 API 部署

Question

I'm working on Android project connected via retrofit to spring-boot API deployed on my local machine. API is connected to MySQL database. Now, I need my API make accessible from external network so I'm looking good place to deploy my back-end. I heard about Heroku, Pivotal, AWS, but all of them looks expensive. Are better alternative for api deployment?

thank you

Your best shot is Firebase .

2. A small guide about setup.
3. Guide on building Android Apps on Firebase and Google App Engine .
