Read my post on OReilly - Java for Google AppEngine, finally!

At last after one year, Google announced the availability of the Java for AppEngine platform. When the AppEngine announced last year, the very first issue filed was - a request for Java. Since then lots of Java developers want to see their favorite language supported by the AppEngine. To put an end to that, tonight at the Google campfire event, AppEngine team announced Java support and many improvements. It is in early access and AppEninge team is still working on the final product. Though it may take some time to finalize the product, it is worthy to look at it right away. My first impression - it is outstanding. Eclipse plugin for AppEngine makes development and deployment very easy for the developers.
