DreamFactory is a BaaS (Backend as a Service) that connects a multitude of data sources to APIs that apps can connect to. With our Agile Anti-Pattern App (MAPA), we wanted to move the patterns database out of the app, so that we did not have to publish a new version of the app every time we added or changed patterns. The simplest way for this was to put the complete data set (a tiered json file) on a webserver and tell the app to download from there. This would solve the problem, but be a pain to edit or version. The optimal solution would of course be a somewhat normalized database of patterns, their symptoms, their remedies, categories and a pattern-categories relation.
