Use Google App Engine

- [Instructor] So in this section I'm going to talk about…Google App Engine, and this is known as GAE.…This is one of their original…service offerings on the GCP cloud.…And it's kind of an interesting product…because it's been out for many years,…about four or five years as of this recording,…and it was one of the first what's called PaaS,…or platform as a service, offerings,…and it offers application virtualization.…So you might be thinking to yourself,…well didn't we just go through containers…and isn't that application virtualization?…And the answer is they both are.…

Now what's really interesting about this…is, as I mentioned in an earlier movie,…Google was actually one of the authors…of the container standard.…Google has been using containers internally…for their own application virtualization…for many, many years, and they've just productized,…or made available to the public, different versions.…So App Engine came first,…and it had been very much proprietary…to Google's unique way of implementing containers…
