PostgREST 9.0
A year ago the Russian-based Lingualeo (20 mln users) presented an article where they described their new architecture which has a similar concept. They have a simple proxy server in Go and all the logic happens in Postgres, i.e. frontend directly manipulates DB. Their claimed advantages were superior performance and less boilerplate&#x2F;faster iteration times.<p>In a matter of hours, commenters were able to dump sensitive data (passwords and all) by  constructing specially crafted queries. Another problem they had was that many core devs left because they perceived the new architecture a step backwards. Many also noted that they don&#x27;t have adequate tools for version control anymore. I don&#x27;t know how PostgREST compares, maybe it doesn&#x27;t have such issues.
