 The WTIA is pleased to bring to the Puget Sound a comprehensive look at Cloud Computing.  Through this multi part series attendees will learn both fundamental and advanced concepts of Cloud Computing as seen through the eyes of industry leaders.

Cloud Computing is the buzz of the industry.  Whether as a way to lower computing costs, test an application, or provide a more scalable solution, Cloud Computing offers a whole range of new opportunities for software developers and IT professionals.  Anyone running a web service business or managing an IT enterprise system should understand the opportunities and challenges of this new computing model. 

Part III - Google's World View of Cloud Computing

App Engine allows you to build and run applications on the same highly scalable web infrastructure that Google uses to run its own applications. This allows you to build an application once, and then never have to worry about how many people are using it, how many machines you're using, or how you're going to handle all the traffic.

In this talk, Mike Repass, Product Manager with Google will introduce you to the basic features of Google App Engine, and walk you through the code for a simple application. He will also discuss some of the trade-offs with Google App Engine, and how it compares to other cloud computing offerings.
