What Is Google App Engine?

Google App Engine is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering that lets you build and run applications on Google’s infrastructure. App Engine applications are easy to build, easy to maintain, and easy to scale as your traffic and data storage needs change. With App Engine, there are no servers for you to maintain. You simply upload your application and it’s ready to go.

The App Engine Supported Language

• Java: Using App Engine’s Java runtime environment, you can build your application using standard Java technologies.
• Python: App Engine features a fast Python interpreter and standard Python libraries.
• PHP: App Engine uses Google's Cloud Platform services under the hood when you call standard PHP functions.
• Go: App Engine features a Go runtime environment that runs natively compiled Go code.
