for Google's addition of Java to the Google App Engine platform. The
systems integrator also announced the formation of a Google App Engine
development practice dedicated to extending the utility of Google Apps
in large scale, enterprise deployments.
Cloud Sherpas' announcement coincides with the April 7 Google
Campfire One event where Google announced its new Java support for
Google App Engine. The Cloud Sherpas team will leverage Google App
Engine and the new Java language support to enable deep integrations
and build new products for the Google Apps ecosystem, the company said.
"The drive to reduce cost has created a groundswell of demand for
Google Apps among large institutions and enterprise customers," said
Michael Cohn, CEO of Cloud Sherpas. "With Java language support, Google
App Engine offers an open, scalable platform for organizations to
integrate Google Apps with other applications, build custom workflow applications, and migrate legacy workloads to the cloud."
Cloud Sherpas also published a whitepaper entitled "Extending Google Apps with Java for App Engine."
The whitepaper offers a high-level overview of the Google App Engine
stack and describes an approach for integrating custom applications
with Google Apps. Please visit the Cloud Sherpas website to download
