Google App Engine seems pretty freaking sweet to me. In short:
- write apps in Python
- deploy on Google’s infrastructure
- access to existing Google goodness like BigTable, email, and authentication
- free account can use up to 500MB of storage and serve ~5M page views/month
- non-free accounts coming soon
- can upload additional modules as long as they fit the sandbox rules
Unfortunately the beta test pool filled up almost immediately, so I don’t get to play with this yet… But it’s definitely exciting that Python’s in such a spotlight lately.
And check out the video of Guido van Rossum talking about App Engine…
