Google Cloud Platform Update

Yesterday we had a very cool event at Google’s offices. There were many mobile and web developers that came to hear what is new with Google cloud technologies (among other thing). I’ve used this set of slides because I knew they will be useful to many more developers that miss the event. That is the reason, I’ve used ‘a lot’ of words on each slide.

The event was recorded and I will update this post with the video soon. Have a great 2014!

Compute Engine In 5min

This week, we showed in GDL-IL (Google developer live Israel) how to work with google compute engine. Google Compute Engine offers scalable and flexible virtual machine computing capabilities in the cloud. You can solve large scale processing and analytic problems on Google’s computing, storage, and networking infrastructure. It’s also great option to ‘play’ with a server (web service) in the cloud and scale it efficiently. It’s *open for all* and it got some powerful features like:

Google I/O 2013 – Mobile, Web and Cloud – The Triple Crown of Modern Applications

Can we had a better title for our talk? I’m not sure… But the description was along the lines of “…Ready to rock the world with your next application? Odds are you are thinking about mobile, web and the cloud.” So far… so good.

In this session we talked about building a modern mobile web application that takes advantage of the Google Cloud Platform. We touch on the powerful combination of the “mobile web AND the cloud” and in the process we tried to show the power of Google cloud endpoints and modern HTML5 apis. We built a fun little mobile web app “Pictureque” that give you the options to take photos (even on airplanes) and then share them with the world.
