XanoYour existing front end

Keep the API contract. Replace what's behind it.

Your front ends do not need to know this happened. We rebuild the endpoints in typed Node against your own Postgres, matching the existing contract, then cut over one route at a time.

Why this stack

What you get when you move Xano to Your existing front end.

Front ends keep working

We preserve the API surface, so WeWeb, FlutterFlow, or custom clients keep calling the same endpoints with the same shapes throughout the migration.

Function stacks become services

Visual function stacks become typed service methods you can read, test, and reason about in a code review.

Route-by-route cutover

A proxy routes each endpoint to either Xano or the new backend, so migration risk is scoped to one route at a time.

Query performance you control

Indexes, query plans, and connection pooling become yours to tune, rather than a black box behind a request limit.

Cost stops tracking request volume

Infrastructure priced on resources rather than API calls, which changes the economics as you scale.

The migration map

Xano concept → Your existing front end equivalent

The exact mental model we use during migration. If you're scoping internally, copy this table.

Function stack
Service method
Each step becomes readable code with typed inputs and outputs.
API endpoint
Route handler
Same path, same contract, typed request and response.
Database table
Postgres table + Prisma model
Schema exported and rebuilt with proper constraints.
Addon / external request
Typed SDK client
With retries, timeouts, and circuit breaking.
Background task
Queued job
Durable, retried, and observable.
Authentication
Auth provider or JWT service
Existing tokens honoured during transition.
File storage
S3-compatible storage + CDN
Signed URLs and lifecycle rules.
The 6-step process

Predictable. Auditable. Reversible.

1

API inventory

Every endpoint catalogued with its contract, callers, and traffic volume, so cutover order follows risk rather than guesswork.

2

Schema migration

Xano database exported to Postgres with constraints added, kept in sync until each route moves.

3

Proxy layer

A routing layer in front of both backends, so each endpoint can be switched independently and reverted instantly.

4

Endpoint rebuild

Function stacks reimplemented as typed services with tests asserting the response contract matches exactly.

5

Progressive cutover

Low-traffic endpoints first, then the critical paths, each with monitoring on error rate and latency before moving on.

6

Decommission

Once all routes are served by the new backend, Xano is archived and the subscription ends.

Estimates use median list pricing for the selected platform and median DigitalOcean / Vercel hosting for an equivalent code-based app, plus modest dev-ops time. Real numbers depend on usage, integrations, and compliance scope.

Frequently asked

XanoYour existing front end questions

Will our WeWeb or FlutterFlow front end break?+

It should not notice. Preserving the API contract is the core constraint of this migration, and we test response shapes against the originals endpoint by endpoint before switching traffic.

Can we migrate only part of the backend?+

Yes. The proxy layer makes a permanent hybrid viable if some endpoints are genuinely fine where they are. Most teams do eventually move everything, but there is no requirement to.

How long does a Xano migration take?+

Typically 3 to 8 weeks depending on endpoint count and how much logic sits inside the function stacks.
