Custom Firebase API for Apps

I am developing a new application that integrates into Firebase.
My question is whether I should have the application connect directly to Firebase Database? Or should I develop my own custom API using Node.js and have my app connect to those API's? Or is it OK for my app to connect directly to Firebase Database?
The Client SDKs (JavaScript, Android, iOS) are especially made for directly connecting your app to Firebase services (Databases, Cloud Storage, etc.).
You normally combine them with some security rules, either to manage access control or to control the data that is written to the database.
If you have specific needs that cannot be implemented through the Client SDKs (and security rules) you could very well use you own APIs using the Node.js SDK: for example, implementing you own authentication/autorisation mechanism, implementing a complex business logic to verify data that is coming from the client app, or a business logic for transforming data that you don't want to expose in the front-end (aka "Secret sauce"), etc.
Here is an article from Doug Stevenson (Firebaser) comparing Client SDKs and Cloud Functions to write to the database that you should definitely read: using Cloud Functions is similar to implementing your own APIs in Node.js (Same language, environment that you manage).

How do I change API in cosmosDB?

I have a cosmosDB with mongo API, however there are many features not supported in this API so I want to switch to SQL API?
As things stand today it is not possible to switch you account from one type to another.
This is what you need to do if you need to switch to the SQL API:
Create a SQL API Cosmos DB Account
Download the Cosmos DBmigration tool
Migrate all the data from the MongoDB account to the SQL API account
Delete the MongoDB account

Does the Python SDK for CosmosDB not allow for token/credential auth?

The examples given in the python SDK to access a cosmosdb account only use the masterkey; is it possible access tables or SQL collections using from msrestazure.azure_active_directory import MSIAuthentication or something similar (which for example allows for MSI token auth into keyvault) for auth into cosmos?
(obviously python could manually implement REST API for token auth, just wondering if SDK support is there)
No, Azure Cosmos doesn't support AAD based auth yet, so none of the SDKs support this. A common pattern I've seen to avoid having it in a config file/env variable is to use Azure KeyVault to store the master key, then use MSI to access that key in-memory and pass it into the client constructor.
This is supported on Cosmos DB now. You can try it across all SDKs now, You can check the samples for different SDKS.
Azure Cosmos DB exposes a built-in role-based access control (RBAC) system
which lets you to Authenticate your data requests with an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) identity.

CosmoDB with Qt

Hello and I am new to developing with Qt for cross platform development. My current goal is to be able to cache data from a CosmosDB with my app that I've developed in Qt. I've had no problem setting up the CosmosDB, but I am confused at what the best way to communicate with the database is.
Do I need to create my own API to talk with the database? Are there libraries out there already do what I want?
You can use either standard HTTP requests, or use SQL API.
Azure Cosmos DB exposes resources through the REST APIs that can be called by HTTP/HTTPS requests. How can I develop apps with the SQL API
Azure Cosmos DB REST API reference
Also Azure Cosmos DB offers a query language as an interface to query JSON documents. The language supports a subset of ANSI SQL grammar and adds deep integration of JavaScript object, arrays, object construction, and function invocation. Microsoft shows exmaples here

cloud alternative for wso2 Pre-Packaged Identity Server and API+Manager

I am now hosting Pre-Packaged+Identity+Server+5.2.0+with+API+Manager+2.0.0 [https://docs.wso2.com/display/CLUSTER44x/Configuring+the+Pre-Packaged+Identity+Server+5.2.0+with+API+Manager+2.0.0] in my own AWS instance.
Planning to move on to managed Cloud solution by WSO2. But I can see independent installatiion of identity server and wso2 api manager. But is there a cloud alternative for idenitity server , api manager combo.
I am using WSO2 idenity server for user management only.keeping users in that. Can it be done in API manager as well?
What is the cloud alternative for this?
WSO2 Cloud uses Identity Server for providing Single Sign On. Cloud has its deployment architecture done in a way API Manager can also do the user management (thats comes with the power of WSO2 platform). You dont need to worry about cloud having the API Manager and Identity Server separately.
IF you are managing your subscribers and publishers, then its an out of the box scenario in the cloud. If you want to store end users of the APIs (i.e. if you are using the password grant type), then you can add a secondary userstore and store the end users in it.
I recommend you to raise these questions via the "Contact Support" option available in the Cloud UI.
