Hi, Ludo (from the Java App Engine team here). Good news: as of today, we are providing to select customers a private preview access to a new Java11 GAE runtime with many of the App Engine APIs (com.google.appengine.api.*) support for easy GAE application upgrade from Java8. This new Java11 runtime is an extension of the previous Java11 runtime <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/java11> (which did not support the 'legacy' API), and it is based on Jetty 9.4 Web server and existing well know Java Web Apps, configured with appengine-web.xml (not app.yaml) under a WEB-INF/ web app directory, and same existing tooling (Maven, Gradle). It would be great if existing Java8 GAE customers could try this private preview on a new version of their app (and obviously do not use it to server production traffic yet), and give us feedback!
Some of the major bundled GAE services the Private Preview now include: - - Memcache - - Datastore / Objectify with GAE Datastore - - URLfetch - - Blobstore - - Images - - Task Queues - - Users - - Mail If you would like to register for the Private Preview, please fill out the Registration Form <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd1hFLA2UFSYwIMxm9ZI3pwigORZBgjJRH0qrnhtE7nvhhRCQ/viewform> . Registering will get you access to the Private Preview documentation, which includes the full API docs for the runtime. Thanks for trying it now and helping us fine tuning it so we can make it public soon!
