Comments on: Google App Engine is LAMP 2.0 http://offermann.us/2008/04/09/google-app-engine-is-lamp-20/ More output. Less input.

But, that's completely optional. If you'd rather not force your users to use Google Accounts for logging in to your Web app, you can use your own user authorization system. As for users uploading data, I don't think Google states anywhere that they have any claim of ownership to your users' content. They maintain the right to take down "prohibited content" (see <a href="http://code.google.com/appengine/program_policies.html" rel="nofollow">Google App Engine Program Policies</a>), but that's pretty typical of any Web host. @Talha: If you use Google’s Users API, then obviously Google is going to know who your users are.

I am a sometimes Python programmer (who loves it) who homeschools a high school freshman (who is just learning Python also). I was planning to try Django (incorporated in GAE) for web app learning projects. So for us, GAE will be a perfect way to actually 'go live' -- once they expand beyond the initial 10000. In the meanwhile, we will play with the at-home SDK -- which in definitely simpler than LAMP for me. Bombshell indeed!

Couldn't agree with Nate as well. Hope you can drop by at morphexchange.com and see what we have built for Ruby on Rails developers. Just like Google's App Engine, things like load balancing, deployment, versioning, and backups are all taken out of the developer's to do list on the Morph Application Platform. Hi Tom, great post.
