Google I/O 2009 - Connecting The Clouds: Integrating Google App Engine for Java with Force.com

Ron Hess, Iein Valdez

In this session we will outline how to connect the Salesforce SOAP Web Services API to Google App Engine for Java. The project includes an open source Web Service Client that has been completely ported to App Engine. This client is designed for high performance and will work with Force.com WSDLs or other WSDLs that you may want to connect to. We will discuss the porting effort and demonstrate a simple integration between App Engine and the Salesforce.com. Appirio will demonstrate an advanced casino host application & game which blends App Engine and Salesforce. You'll learn how both platforms can be developed on side-by-side within the Eclipse IDE.

Google I/O 2009 - JRuby & Ioke on Google App Engine for Java

Google I/O 2009 - JRuby and Ioke on Google App Engine for Java

Ola Bini

JRuby is regarded as the most stable and efficient implementation of Ruby. Running JRuby on top of Google App Engine for Java gives access to many interesting possibilities, including running Rails on top of Google's infrastructure. Exactly how to make this happen is not totally apparent, though, and there are several gotchas involved in the process. This presentation will introduce the pieces of JRuby needed to get everything working, what kind of customizations are needed, what you might need to avoid in Ruby to avoid getting in trouble with App Engine's security restrictions, and many other things. It will also look at how to test your Rails application, and how you can interface Ruby with Google's Datastore service. And JRuby isn't the only dynamic language that can be run on top of App Engine, using the new Java stack. Ioke is a small, prototype based object oriented language that also runs on App Engine. This part of the presentation introduces the things that you as a language implementor might need to keep in mind to make sure that your JVM language can run on top of App Engine.

If you work on distributed systems, you try to design your system to keep running if any single machine fails. If you're ambitious, you might extend this to entire racks, or even more inconvenient sets of machines. However, what if your entire datacenter falls off the face of the earth? This talk will examine how current large scale storage systems handle fault tolerance and consistency, with a particular focus on the App Engine datastore. We'll cover techniques such as replication, sharding, two phase commit, and consensus protocols (e.g. Paxos), then explore how they can be applied across datacenters.

Google I/O 2009 -..Distributed Transaction Layer: App Engine

Google I/O 2009 - A Design for a Distributed Transaction Layer for Google App Engine

Daniel Wilkerson

Massively scalable web applications encounter a fundamental tension in computing between performance and correctness: whereas performance is often addressed by using a large and therefore distributed machine, correctness, especially of an interruptible and multi-threaded program, requires data invariants to be maintained with the assistance of an underlying transaction layer. We provide a Distributed Transaction algorithm assuming a strongly consistent layer providing Local Transactions. We give most of the detail for operation in optimistic mode; however the same infrastructure could be used for pessimistic transactions as well, even at the same time. The algorithm is general but we express it in the particular instance of Google App Engine.

Google I/O 2009 - ThoughtWorks on App Engine for Java: An Enterprise Cumulonimbus?

Martin Fowler, Rebecca Parsons

Enterprise software pundits are now gazing metaphorically skyward. There's all this talk of clouds, but what kind of clouds are coming, and will they be friendly? We begin by describing some applications we've developed for App Engine, including implementation of other languages, such as JRuby, on top of the App Engine for Java implementation. These implementations demonstrate the breadth of capability provided by App Engine. We then examine some of the strengths and current weaknesses that we encountered. We also describe more about the implications for testing that arise when developing on App Engine. We will also present an initial framework for characterizing these differnet clouds and examine how these characteristics will impact the adoption path for enterprises and the kinds of applications these enterprises will move to the cloud. Of particular interest here is the central role of Big Table in App Engine. Broad adoption of this of this platform could lead to lots of lightening striking at the dominant role relational data base systems currently enjoy.

Google I/O 2009: Building Scalable, Complex Apps on App Engine

Creating relatively simple applications that scale with App Engine can be easy after the initial learning curve. But larger applications with more complex functionality are still hard to get right, especially when you need to scale. This talk will go over more advanced data structures and techniques to use when building complex web applications with Google App Engine, and how to make them scale.

Google I/O 2009: Mapping Java Persistence Standards To the Google App Engine Datastore

Google App Engine is a powerful cloud-computing platform designed to help developers more easily create and manage scalable web applications. With the recent addition of Java support, developers can now interact with the Google App Engine datastore using JDO and JPA, both standard Java persistence APIs. In this talk we will discuss how these standards allow you to create a "soft schema" on top of a schema-less datastore, and the advantages this soft schema provides. We will also explore how the datastore's "pre-sharded" transactional model is exposed in these standard interfaces. Finally, we will discuss how a soft schema maps to a traditional, relational schema, and examine some techniques for porting persistence code on and off App Engine.

Developer Profiles - Paul Hammant (ThoughtWorks) on AppEngine

Last week we had a number of exciting announcements at Campfire One (http://code.google.com/campfire/). We've received a lot of good feedback so far. We've heard from developers who were excited about cron support, intrigued by the Google Secure Data Connector and pleased with database import. However, most of the excitement has been reserved for the new integrated development environment which was created through the marriage of Google-Web-Toolkit (GWT), Google App Engine for Java and the Google Plugin for Eclipse. Web app developers can now not only write both client and server code using the familiar Java language, but they can share & reuse code between client and server.

I wanted to capture some real world developer feedback, so as part of our Developer Profiles series I sat down with Paul Hammant of ThoughtWorks to discuss his first impressions with the platform. As Paul continues to tinker with the platform you can of course follow him on his blog.

If you have a compelling application that you've written with Google App Engine and GWT I'd like to hear about it. Send me an email at fredsa@google.com.

You can watch the entire Developer Profiles series at: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=C94A1F02A95E9A2A
