Google Launches Amazon Web Services Competitor
Amazon has for long won the hearts of developers worldwide with its amazing services in Amazon S3, SimpleDB and EC2. Google finally has a noteworthy competitor up its sleeves to give Amazon some shakes. Google has just launched a preview release of Google App Engine. Here’s what Google has to say about the App Engine :
Google App Engine lets you run your web applications on Google’s infrastructure. App Engine applications are easy to build, easy to maintain, and easy to scale as your traffic and data storage needs grow. With App Engine, there are no servers to maintain: You just upload your application, and it’s ready to serve your users.
Unlike Amazon’s offerings, the App Engine is one closely knit service providing all the functionality that Amazon provides in its trio of S3, SimpleDB, EC2 in one simple unified package.
