Google App Engine 101
Jonathan Elli
Google App Engine allows running applications on the Google infrastructure, including BigTable, Google’s non-relational and massibely scalable database.
The tutorial coved the basics of App Engine developement, including development and deployment of a simple application.
Jonathan presented this part very well and he explained what was needed to to do the job such as Django. Even though I could get the impression that Jonathan was not excited or happy to work with Django he would admit that it was the best tool for the project at the moment.
I enjoyed how Jonathan presented his lecture in about 35 mins and then left the rest of the time to build a basic project and ask for his help and assistance. At this point in the presentation though I did not have much battery life on my laptop so I did not get the chance to push my limits with this.
