Hi all, Totally new to this, about to embark on a development for my own business and think that GAE is the perfect solution. I basically want to make sure that we are making the right choice, and to be informed of any pitfalls early on.
Basically the system will be a complete intranet/sales tool based around a rather complex pricing engine. I have previous experience using Codeigniter + Doctrine, but after tinkering with v2.0 for a while it just seems like it is very buggy, and still has many limitations over using Java. We already use google apps for mail and have a simple intranet built on google sites so users will be using their company email account for validation. There are a few key features we need: - Small number of users (~100) - Integration with salesforce.com (Using the force.com API?) - Integration with Gmail so that the system can automatically log and send emails, as well as pick them up. (Using IMAP/SMTP?) - Ability to upload and store basic files that can be downloaded by staff (Using docs API, or just datastore?) If anyone can advise of any things to investigate right now that would be really helpful. I have quite a few years experience programming, and a willing assistant with a bit of OO knowledge, other than that I will be learning to use things like JDO and JSP for the first time. All of your input is appreciated. Drew -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine for Java" group.
