zafir khan product marketing manager at 12 54 pm email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest bringing debian to google compute engine this was an exciting week for the debian community who released debian 7 0 wheezy that brings big improvements including hardened security improved 32 64 bit compatibility and addresses a lot of community feedback today we re adding debian images for google compute engine debian in collaboration with us is providing images for both debian 7 0 wheezy and the previous stable release debian 6 0 squeeze this support will make it easy for anyone using debian today to migrate their workloads onto compute engine for fast performance and to reduce bandwidth costs google is hosting a debian package mirror for use by google compute engine debian instances we ve updated our docs and will support debian via our usual support options or you can also check out what debian offers we are continually evaluating other operating systems that we can enable with compute engine however going forward debian will be the default image type for compute engine we look forward to hearing your feedback posted by jimmy kaplowitz site reliability engineer and debian developer at 11 31 am email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday may 7 2013 automatically process cloud storage uploads with change notifications do your customers upload files to google cloud storage for your applications to process for example a photo app may want to create thumbnails of new images as soon as they are uploaded normally you would have to poll for updated objects which can be a resource waste or cause you to react slowly most times writing and deploying custom scripts to trigger your application is cumbersome today we re releasing object change notification as a preview feature allowing you to watch your google cloud storage buckets for new modified or deleted objects with a webhook you provide now your application can be automatically triggered when an important change happens and start processing data immediately we ve also updated gsutil with a notifyconfig command a google app engine webhook can be as simple as the following we re also releasing an update to the google cloud storage json api bringing it into parity with our existing xml api including exposing new methods such as copy and compose as a part of this release we are making the api available to everyone without requiring an invitation enjoy and as always we watch stackoverflow posted by dave barth product manager at 6 52 pm email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest tuesday april 9 2013 app engine 1 7 7 released 3 weeks following our last release the app engine team is happy to announce 1 7 7 we plan to deliver our google i o release next month outbound sockets moved to preview outbound sockets is now in preview in this release for java and python with outbound sockets billing enabled app engine applications can now make outbound connections with tcp or udp sockets this allows developers to build applications that weren t previously possible on app engine such as imap or dns clients in the python runtime we ve added support for the python ssl library so you can now open secure connections to remote services such as apple s push notification service similarly java developers can now use the javax net ssl package to make outbound ssl connections java 7 runtime upgraded to general availability the app engine team is committed to quickly releasing features to general availability you may recall we announced that the java 7 runtime was in preview just 2 months ago since then we have seen 200 adoption week over week and today are happy to announce the general availability of the runtime in order to help developers move over all app deployments initiated using the new 1 7 7 sdk will use java 7 unless you explicitly opt out with a command line flag in the near future we plan to automatically update all existing java 6 applications to java 7 most applications shouldn t be affected by this change but we encourage you to start testing your application in advance for more compatibility information we suggest that you check out the java se 7 and jdk 7 compatibility notes google app engine maven plugin the google app engine maven plugin has been updated to support new goals now you can directly enhance datanucleus classes and generate google cloud endpoints service discovery and client libraries improving the developer experience goodbye 2 10 we re happy to announce that billing enabled applications will no longer be required to spend a minimum of 2 10 per week this means that you can enable billing for a free tier application and continue running within the free tier without concern that a spike in traffic will terminate serving note that you can always specify a daily dollar budget the minimum spend was originally intended to prevent abuse and ensure that we can offer a stable reliable system with a free tier we have determined that we can continue to support the free tier without relying on the minimum spend so goodbye 2 10 cloud sdk preview in our continuing effort to make developers lives easier we are happy to share with you a preview release of the google cloud sdk which includes everything from the app engine sdks for java python or go as well as all the tools needed to target google compute engine google cloud sql google cloud storage and google bigquery in one easy to use package please try it out we are eager to hear your feedback a note on reliability improvements a key benefit of running on a managed service like app engine is the changes that occur behind the scenes that automatically improve the performance of your applications in just the past two months we ve made many such improvements faster and more consistent deployments many customers are seeing up to 10x reductions in time to deploy a new application version we have fully deployed an entirely new scheduler system which autoscales applications more smoothly and efficiently admin console dashboard charts and current load error reports have moved to a new more reliable backend the release version of app engine is now visible in the admin console and in request logs several stability and scheduling improvements to task queue the complete list of features and bug fixes for 1 7 7 can be found in our release notes for app engine coding questions and answers check us out on stack overflow and for general discussion and feedback find us on our google group posted by chris ramsdale product manager at 1 25 pm email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest thursday april 4 2013 google compute engine expanded availability new features and lower prices cross posted with the google developers blog starting today google compute engine is available to all customers who s ign up for our gold support package we re also happy to announce a 4 reduction on all compute engine pricing in the nine months since announcing compute engine customers have been using google s infrastructure as a service product and giving us valuable feedback sebastian stadil of scalr wrote in a recent review google compute engine is not just fast it s google fast in fact it s a class of fast that enables new service architectures entirely we re happy to hear that because one of our main goals in building compute engine is to enable a new generation of applications with direct access to the capabilities of google s vast computing infrastructure based on user feedback we ve added a number of major features including the option to boot from persistent disks mounted as the root file system persistent disk snapshots the ability to checkpoint and restore the contents of network resident persistent disks on demand and the ability to attach and detach persistent disks from running instances an improved administration console the google cloud console preview which allows you to administer all your google cloud platform services via a unified interface screenshot of new cloud console in action five new instance type familie s diskless versions of our standard instance types plus diskful and diskless versions of high memory and high cpu configurations w ith 16 new instance types two new supported zones in europe which provide lower latency and higher performance for our european customers we ve also made it easy to migrate virtual machine instances from one zone to another via an enhancement to our gcutil command line tool an enhanced metadata server with the ability to support recursive queries blocking gets and selectable response formats along with support for updating virtual machine tags and metadata on running instances which enables dynamic reconfiguration scenarios while we ve been hard at work developing new features we ve also had the opportunity to play check out the
