Cloud Portability

Cloud portability from Google and VMware

Develop and deploy rich web apps for your enterprise, across multiple environments and devices.

Google and VMware have enhanced our open source Java development tools, allowing enterprise developers to rapidly build rich web apps, run them on multiple devices, and deploy them on-premise or in the cloud of your choice. Familiar tools turn Java developers into cloud developers, and standard APIs avoid cloud lock-in.

• Spring Roo

  With Spring Roo, a next-generation rapid application development tool, Java developers can easily build full Java applications in minutes, using the Java Persistence API (JPA) to connect them to new or existing databases. Roo outputs standard Java code, so it’s easy to refine the back end with the SpringSource Tool Suite and the front end with the Google Web Toolkit SDK, using Roo as much or as little as desired.

• Google Web Toolkit SDK

  New data presentation widgets in Google Web Toolkit speed development of traditional enterprise applications, increase performance and interactivity for enterprise users, and make it much easier to create engaging mobile apps with a fraction of the investment previously required.

• SpringSource Tool Suite

  Using the Eclipse-based SpringSource Tool Suite, developers can now choose to deploy their application on Google App Engine for Business, a VMware environment (your vSphere infrastructure, your choice of vCloud partners, or VMforce), or other infrastructure such as Amazon EC2. We call this cloud portability.

• Google Web Toolkit Speed Tracer

  Speed Tracer now helps developers identify and fix performance problems not only in the client and network portions of their apps, but also on the server. By incorporating server-side time traces from both Spring Insight and Google App Engine AppStats, Speed Tracer provides a consolidated view of where sluggishness actually comes from -- be it client, network, or server -- so it’s much easier to see what to fix.

• Google App Engine for Business

  Google App Engine for Business enables organizations to build and host web apps on the same systems that power Google applications and includes new enterprise-level features, a 99.9% uptime SLA, support and flat-rate pricing. Google App Engine for Business is a first-class choice for deploying enterprise apps to the cloud as part of a cloud portability strategy, whether for seasonal apps, bursty apps, disaster recovery, or simply for friction-free deployment of new apps.
