Written by the developers of Google App Engine, this book explains how to build web applications to take advantage of Google’s immense network infrastructure. "Programming Google App Engine" teaches intermediate and advanced web developers how to build infinitely scalable applications with App Engine. Like Amazon’s EC2, App Engine lets companies "rent" cloud computing resources. This book describes ways to perform common development tasks using App Engine APIs and services, and explains what kinds of web applications are best suited for App Engine and what kinds are not.
