App Engine

GOOGLE APP ENGINE       I t's an highly built scalable application on a fully managed serverless platform .  G oogle App Engine  (often referred to as   App Engine ) is a cloud computing platform as a service  for developing and hosting web applications  in Google-managed data centers . Applications are sandboxed  and run across multiple servers.  App Engine offers automatic scaling for web applications—as the number of requests increases for an application, App Engine automatically allocates more resources for the web application to handle the additional demand. You Can:     1)  Scale your applications from zero to planet scale without having to manage infrastructure     2)  Free up your developers with zero server management and zero configuration deployments     3) Stay agile with support for popular development languages and a range of developer tools  App Engine was developed by google a...

Major Features of Google App Engine in Cloud Computing Some of the prominent Google App Engine features include:   1. Collection of Development Languages and Tools The App Engine supports numerous programming languages for developers and offers the flexibility to import libraries and frameworks through docker containers. You can develop and test an app locally using the SDK containing tools for deploying apps. Every language has its SDK and runtime.   Some of the languages offered include — Python, PHP, .NET, Java, Ruby, C#, Go, Node.Js.   2. Fully Managed Google allows you to add your web application code to the platform while managing the infrastructure for you. The engine ensures that your web apps are secure and running and saves them from malware and threats by enabling the firewall.    3. Pay-as-you-Go The app engine works on a pay-as-you-go model, i.e., you only pay for what you use. The app engine automatically scales up resources when the ...

 App Engine comes in two different environments namely Standard Environment and Flexible Environment. Let's learn more about them,which would allow you to choose an environment which meets your application needs. Standard Environment:- In App Engine Standard Environment  your code runs in a special sandboxed environment rather than on a separate Virtual Machine.The App Engine standard environment makes it easy to build and deploy an application that runs reliably even under heavy load and with large amounts of data. Languages supported by Standard environment  are:-Python,Java,PHP Node.js,Go.One drawback of Standard Environment is that only specific versions of programming languages are supported .e.g. java8 and java11 for Java. Flexible Environments:- App Engine flexible environment is based on Docker containers so one is free to choose any programming language. It is Based on Google Compute Engine and automatically scales your app up and down while also balancing the lo...

  Benefits of Using App Engine        1. All Time Availability When you develop and deploy your web applications on the cloud, you enable remote access for your applications. Considering the impact of COVID-19 on businesses, Google App Engine is the right choice that lets the developers develop applications remotely, while the cloud service manages the infrastructure needs. 2. Ensure Faster Time to Market For your web applications to succeed, ensuring faster time to market is imperative as the requirements are likely to change if the launch time is extended. Using Google App Engine is as easy as it can get for developers. 3. Easy to Use Platform The developers only require to write code. With zero configuration and server management, you eliminate all the burden to manage and deploy the code. 4. Increased Scalability Scalability is synonymous with growth — an essential factor that assures success and competitive advantage. The good news is that the Goo...

  What’s next? More Languages on App Engine Large download/upload support Purchasing additional capacity Conclusion The Google service is a preferable choice for organizations as they do not have to worry about hosting and managing the application infrastructure. Flexibility: Java or Python APIs Security: sandbox environment, rich APIs Easy to Scale: uses Google infrastructure Future: better performance, new features
