Google expands on Web application resources for developers. NEW YORK (Reuters) - Web search leader Google Inc (GOOG.O: Quote, Profile, Research)
said on Tuesday that Google App Engine would offer additional
computing resources for developers this year and announced
pricing for the service.
Developers using Google App Engine, which lets outsiders
build Web applications on the same infrastructure that runs
Google's own applications, will have a free quota of 500
Megabytes of storage and enough computing power and bandwidth
for about 5 million pageviews per month.
But for further usage Google said it would charge
developers depending on how much storage and bandwidth they
require beyond the free quota and that the pricing plans would
be effective later this year after a preview period.
