Google App Engine Blog: Introducing Google App Engine + our new blog

Google just started a new service called Google App Engine. I signed up as it will make my life much easier with projects and application that I am bringing forth in the near future. With 500MB of storage, 200M megacycles of CPU per day, and 10GB bandwidth per day, I have no complaints but admiration. You too can get your Web Application on Google platform, follow the link to read the blog post and join the force.

Google App Engine gives you access to the same building blocks that Google uses for its own applications, making it easier to build an application that runs reliably, even under heavy load and with large amounts of data. The development environment includes the following features:

  • Dynamic webserving, with full support of common web technologies
  • Persistent storage (powered by Bigtable and GFS with queries, sorting, and transactions)
  • Automatic scaling and load balancing
  • Google APIs for authenticating users and sending email
  • Fully featured local development environment

Google App Engine packages these building blocks and takes care of the infrastructure stack, leaving you more time to focus on writing code and improving your application.
