Ok, one problem... they currently only support Python for programming, but the good news is that they will add more languages like PHP in the future. To get PHP as the next language that will be integrated on Google App Engine, please give your vote at there Project page at code.google.com!! http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/issues/detail?id=13 Read and see more about Google App Engine: - http://code.google.com/appengine/ - http://code.google.com/p/googleappengine/ Regards, Paul Looks like they extending their services to web hosting.

They have created a very nice system, but there are some restrictions because of security Bigtable and GFS. But your application can scale without investing in expensive servers and management. The only think you have to do is building your software, Google wil run it on there enormously platform. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] Vote for PHP support in Google App Engine
A co-worker and I were talking about this again today, and I stumbled upon this crazy idea. What if this is Google providing people it's own preferred hosting and backend solutions in the hopes that people make some cool apps they can easily just buy and not even have to convert to land in their own environment? I mean, it has their integrated auth, their datastore and their filesystem. I'm not quite sure their interest is to support everyone's favorite language (I could be wrong) but it could be a covert way to get people to code apps that have very little overhead to bring in-house, since technically it already is :) Explained a little bit better here: http://michaelshadle.com/2008/04/10/google-appengine-1-develop-site-2-get-bought-by-google-3-profit/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
