The first glimpse of Google App engine (a hodgepodge-learn first)

CSDN Pop window to see the Google app Engine many titles, so go to Google to see, in some of the information posted here, there are numerous URLs, hoping to let more friends to understand and use the Google app Engine. Unfortunately, TA does not support C #, but only Python is currently supported. For more information on Python, please visit: http://www.python.org/
Google is said to have already hired Python authors. Python and Google gossip can be seen in this article http://winsystem.ctocio.com.cn/review/321/7831821.shtml

Here are some information and URLs from Google's official

Run your network application based on Google's infrastructure.
Google App Engine allows you to build Web applications on the same scalable system that supports Google apps.

No assembly required.
Google App Engine provides a fully integrated application environment.

It is easy to expand.
Google App Engine makes it easy to build scalable applications (from one user to millions of users) without having to worry about infrastructure.

It's easy to get started.
Each Google app Engine application can use up to 500MB of persistent storage space and enough bandwidth and CPU to support 5 million page views per month.

This is the preview version of Google App Engine. Currently, account registration is limited to the top 10,000 developers, and applications are limited to free account limits.

What is Google App Engine.
Google App Engine allows you to run your Web apps on Google's infrastructure. Google app Engine applications are easy to build and maintain, and can be scaled up to the growth of your access and data storage needs. With Google App Engine, you will no longer need to maintain the server: you simply upload your application and it can serve your users immediately.

You can use a free domain name on the appspot.com domain to service your application, or you can use Google Apps to provide services to it from your own domain. You can share your application with people around the world, or you can restrict access to only members of your organization.

You can start using App Engine for free. Sign up for a free account to develop and publish your applications for worldwide sharing without any cost or responsibility. Each free account can use up to 500MB of persistent storage space and sufficient CPU and broadband to support about 5 million page views per month.

Only free accounts can be used during the trial version of Google App Engine. You will soon be able to purchase additional computing resources.

Getting Started with:
http://code.google.com/intl/zh-CN/appengine/docs/gettingstarted/
Download the Google App Engine SDK
Http://code.google.com/intl/zh-CN/appengine/downloads.html

Development environment
Use the App Engine Software Development Kit (SDK) to develop and upload apps for Google app Engine.

The SDK includes Web server applications that simulate the app Engine environment, including the local version of the database, Google accounts, and the ability to use the app Engine API to extract URLs and send e-mail directly from your computer. The SDK running on any computer uses Python 2.5, and the version applies to Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

If necessary, download and install Python 2.5 for your platform from the Python web site. Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard user has Python 2.5 installed.

Download the App Engine SDK. Follow the instructions in the download page to install the SDK on your computer.

For this tutorial, you will use two commands from the SDK:

dev_appserver.py, developing a Web server
appcfg.py, to upload your application to the app Engine
Windows and Mac OS X Installer applications Place these commands in the command path. After installation, you can run these commands from the command prompt.

If you use the Zip archive version of the SDK, you will find these commands in the Google_appengine directory.
