Google App Engine
Google App Engine (GAE) is a fully managed, serverless platform for developing and hosting web applications at scale. It automatically handles infrastructure tasks like provisioning, scaling, and patching, allowing developers to focus on writing code. It supports multiple programming languages and integrates seamlessly with other Google Cloud services.
Developers should use Google App Engine when building scalable web applications, APIs, or mobile backends that require minimal operational overhead. It's ideal for startups and enterprises needing rapid deployment, automatic scaling based on traffic, and built-in security features. Use cases include e-commerce sites, SaaS platforms, and IoT data processing where reliability and global reach are critical.
