Google App Engine is a platform that allows developers to build and host Java web applications on Google's infrastructure. It handles tasks like scaling and maintenance automatically. Developers can focus on coding without worrying about managing hardware, servers, or other infrastructure. The platform provides APIs that allow access to services like datastore, memcache, and others. It also includes tools for deploying, monitoring, and managing applications.
