Google App Engine is now open everyone who wants account, and apparently there are 80,000 people waiting to sign up, wow! This was announced officially and at Google I/O this week. They've announced upcoming pricing for extra computing power. So head on over and check it out. For more info about App Engine check out my previous post and interview with Dion Almaer from Google.
Other than being open to all they've hinted at some pricing terms once you exceed the limits of the free account. It seems quite reasonable to me.
App Engine will always be free to get started, and we plan on enabling developers to purchase more computing resources sometime this year. Although we're not ready to offer this ability now, we've been asked by many developers to provide some insight into how we'll be pricing App Engine usage for applications that have exceeded the free quota of 500 MB of storage and around 5M pageviews per month. We'd like to be transparent about this, and have announced today that developers can expect to pay:* $0.10 - $0.12 per CPU core-hour
* $0.15 - $0.18 per GB-month of storage
* $0.11 - $0.13 per GB outgoing bandwidth
* $0.09 - $0.11 per GB incoming bandwidth
I'll be meeting up with Dion again for Adobe OnAIR Tour in Europe next week so hopefully I can get some more info and a demo for InsideRIA. Any burning questions you'd like me to ask him?






















It would be nice to know if they are going to support other languages besides Python and which ones
Yeap. When is a Java environment (Tomcat?) comming?
