The latest development for developers
Today, we've taken our first step in making it easier for developers to build and scale their apps, with our preview release of Google App Engine.
With Google App Engine, you can write web applications that are based on the same building blocks that Google uses, like GFS and Bigtable. Google App Engine packages up those building blocks, providing access to scalable infrastructure that we hope will make it easier for developers to scale their applications automatically as they grow.
We're just in the early stages, and we're giving you early access because we really want your feedback. This preview of Google App Engine is available for the first 10,000 developers who sign up, and we plan to increase that number in near future.
If you'd like to try it out, sign up for access to the preview release and then download the SDK to get started. The best place to give us feedback and keep apprised of new developments is in the discussion group, and our new Google App Engine Blog.
