You need a backend developer to develop the backend of a modern decoupled web application. A decoupled application is one where backend and frontend are developed separately and they also run in separate processes.
In a web application, the backend constitutes the APIs. An API takes the internal request from the front end interface, connects database server or other servers for data, processes data and returns the data ( normally in JSON format) to the front end. A backend developer designs the system and writes necessary codes to make it happen.
Though you will find people who are expert in both (full stack developer) but most of the developers are expert either in backend or in front end. The tools and technologies for backend and front end development are also different. So if your project is big enough it makes sense to hire a separate backend developer.
The most popular backend technologies for developing web applications is PHP frameworks. The most recommended is Phalcon microframeworks. It is well known for its exceptional performance as core is written C programming languages. You can also use Laravel & Yii.
As a non PHP frameworks most popular is Node.js with Express. It is Javascript based back end technology and allows writing asynchronous scripts. This leads to much higher performance.
For storing data you can use any database but the most recommended are PgSQL or MongoDB. MongoDB is best for huge data manipulation but reduces the speed of development to some extent. PgSQL gives all advantages of RDBMS at the same time it can withstand huge load. It is free too.
The cost is too reasonable. Dedicated hiring starts at 1 $1200 only. Hourly rates start with $10 only. However cost is likely to be higher with increase in experience, skillset and past track record
We recommend hiring a separate dedicated backend developer for a new project and that requires a team. If your project is small or it is in maintenance mode you can hire a full stack developer who can take care both frontend and backend. You can also have a dedicated backend developer for an ongoing project when the team is quite bigger. Hiring a backend developer on part time should be avoided.
The single biggest reason is the cost. You can get the same project done at 1/5th or even lesser price if you hire from india.
