Hi, GAE+GWT works quite well! If you find GWT a bit too heavy for your needs, you can also have a look at the great lightweight Java framework Play! (http://www.playframework.org) which brings a very nice & efficient experience in developing web sites in RAILS/iterative mode. It's really a huge breath of air in the Java world! For the DB interaction, an alternative is also Siena ( http://www.sienaproject.com) that is not reserved to GAE but can work with other DB (NoSQL and also SQL) (I'm lead developer so I'm not objective on this point :) )
