Google App Engine SDK
I just learned about Google App Engine a couple of hours ago and I have to say I’m pretty excited about what their doing. I really like the fact that they didn’t go out and try to invent their own IDE and scripting language. I’m still really reluctant to move toward cloud computing services. I still want to cling on to my hardware and OS.
Some cool points:
- Pure Python 2.5
- Environment includes: Django, PyYAML, and WebOb
- Google single sign on… (Where’s my OpenID suport?)
- Simple URL Fetch API (Think cURL but easier)
- GQL Datastore API
- Mail API
