2013 Year in review giving time back to developers

2013 was a busy year for Google Cloud Platform. Watch this space: each day, a different Googler who works on Cloud Platform will be sharing his or her highlight from the past year.



My highlight this year was bringing App Engine’s managed non-relational storage service, Datastore, to developers everywhere as Google Cloud Datastore. There are many use cases and applications where developers themselves want to manage the compute-side of the equation (lucky for them, we have world class VMs as well). That said, managing large distributed storage is no easy task, often times consuming precious development hours. For me, giving time back to developers by managing the complex aspects of a scalable service and, thus, allowing them to focus on creating amazing user experiences, is definitely a highlight of the year.
