First look at the cloud with Google App Engine and Udacity
- by Ken Hortsch
Udacity is free online university and
offers a CS253 intro to web development class. Since I am currently a web
developer/architect in ASP.Net (and recent project has brought me back to Java)
it is a bit light. However, it does offer me a nice problem set and my first
exposure to writing cloud apps with GAE and Google Datastore. Steve Huffman, who
developed reddit, is the instructor and
does offer nice real-life stories. Give it a look.
