App Engine Case Studies

Posted on 13:21 by Unknown
Posted by Paul McDonald, App Engine Team



Over the past few months we've heard some amazing stories detailing
just how easy it is to create scalable web applications on App Engine. We've
invited a few developers to participate in some case study videos and
tell you more about their experience with App Engine.




BuddyPoke!
BuddyPoke! is an OpenSocial app running on
MySpace, Orkut, and Hi5. It has scaled to nearly 30M daily
pageviews on App Engine.

"App
Engine has been a godsend in terms of our scalability...we saw a 8x
jump in installs overnight and we are now serving 12 million users!" -
Dave Westwood, BuddyPoke!













Pixverse (PixChat)
PixChat, recently acquired by Hi5, lets you chat with friends
across the web within your Hi5 profile page. 



"Running our app on App Engine was really easy...the whole porting effort took only 3 hours." - Charles Ying, Pixverse











Hyperic (CloudStatus)

CloudStatus monitors the health and performance of major cloud
computing platforms like App Engine and Amazon Web Services.











These are but three examples of the many applications that have
been developed on App Engine.  Are you interested in sharing your
experience?  If so we'd love to hear from you, tell us your story in our developer forum.
