Hi, let me rephrase: Google uses App Engine for some external projects and for some internal projects.
There are many use cases for using App Engine, and it is definitely not restricted to internal corporate websites. I invite you to read https://cloud.google.com/appengine/ to learn about the value of App Engine. Use cases include (but are not restricted to) web applications, API backends for a mobile app or game, micro-services architectures... Here is a recent example: https://open.nytimes.com/moving-the-new-york-times-games-platform-to-google-app-engine-e9337f2c9444 The New York Times uses App Engine for its crossword app. This allows them, among other things, to handle without no issue the daily traffic spikes. The best way to understand it is to give it a try yourself in your favorite language: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/ Steren Product Manager Google Cloud Platform On Wed, Dec 20, 2017 at 11:04 AM Autotransfer.jetzt <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Steren, first of all, let me say that I find it absolutely amazing that > I'm now able to communicate with Google staff directly.
