Google App Engine to Announce Open Sign-ups, Pricing Plans, and New APIs at Google I/O

Google is getting ready to welcome more than 2900 developers to the Moscone Center in San Francisco for Google I/OTM, the company’s largest developer event of the year. The event opens with a keynote speech on Wednesday, May 28, and runs through Thursday, May 29, with nearly 100 in-depth technical sessions about Google’s own developer products, and general web application development.

Google’s developer products are devoted to making it easier for developers to build for the web. In particular, Wednesday’s keynote speech will explore three areas of Google investment that — in close collaboration with the larger web community — aim to enable increasingly innovative and rich web applications:

• Making clouds of computing power more accessible to all developers
• Making the client — i.e., the browser — more capable and more powerful
• Ensuring the connectivity that enables the client and the cloud to work in harmony

"After years of competition among platforms, the web has won because it’s open, because it’s ubiquitous, and because there’s a passionate community working together to move it forward," said Vic Gundotra, vice president of engineering for developer products at Google. "Openness is great for developers and for users because it knocks down hurdles to building great applications, and because it speeds the next wave of innovation by letting good ideas be shared. The web doesn’t depend on any one API or tool or product, from Google or anyone else. What makes the real difference is the aggregate effect of us all working together, with open standards and open source."
