In the past six months alone we've launched nearly 50 projects and small products on Google App Engine -- from Google Moderator and Labs for Google Apps to internal-facing tools for both our Ads and Web teams. In all cases we found it quicker, easier, and more cost-effective to leave the infrastructure to App Engine, and the actual product-building to our engineering teams.
Running our internal and external apps on App Engine isn't without difficulty, however, and we've learned a lot in the process. Tonight at Campfire One we released a new set of features -- based on community and internal feedback -- that helps App Engine interface more easily with businesses' existing technologies:
- App Engine's early look at Java™ language support includes a Java runtime, integration with the new Google Web Toolkit 1.6, and a Google Plugin for Eclipse
- The Google Secure Data Connector enables centrally-managed access to on-premise data from Google Apps
- The database import tool makes it easier to move gigabytes of data into App Engine (and export functionality is coming within the month)
- Cron support can execute scheduled tasks like report generation and DB clean-up at regular intervals
Take a look at videos from tonight's Campfire One below:
