Due to Facebook api restrictions for iOS, I need to be able to send image data up to a server, for the server to store it for a short period of time (maybe an hour). My return response should have a url to that image, which will then be posted to facebook. I already know how to use ASIHTTPRequest and I have all the JSON code ready to go, the problem is I have NO IDEA where to even start on the server side. I don’t know php. I know this task is probably trivial, but can someone instruct me on how to do this so I don’t have to spend days reading books about REST and php etc? Do I set up an account with Amazon cloud services? Really im quite ignorant on these server matters. Im looking for something easy here.

If you don’t want to build the web service yourself you might look into something like Parse
It’s specifically designed to work with mobile apps. It also has Facebook integration.
Here’s the section of their docs related to storing images https://www.parse.com/docs/ios_guide#files-images
