Google offers with the Google App Engine(GAE) a cloud computing infrastructure for creating and running web application on the Google infrastructure.
The GAE is a platform to create web applications. Google does currently support Python, Java and several languages based on Java as a programming language for the Google App Engine. This article will focus on the development with Python but no previous knowledge of Python is required. See the resource part of a link to an introduction to the Google Apps Engine Development with Java.
Cloud computing allows that system resources can be dynamically allocated to the application on demand. Currently the price model for the Google App Engine is not defined but Google offers a free starting offer for the GAE.
Currently a user can create a maximum of 10 application on the Google App Engine.
