node.js - What is the difference between Socket.IO and Firebase?

Question

I watched a codeschool tutorial on Node.js and they imitated a chat server using Socket.IO in their tutorial.

I am also under the impression that Firebase does the same thing.

What is the difference between the two, if there are any?
