Development in the Cloud with Codenvy and Google Cloud Platform

Monday, July 8, 2013

Today’s post is from Tyler Jewell, CEO at Codenvy. In this post, Tyler looks at how you can leverage cloud based development tools to build applications for Google Cloud Platform.CodenvyGoogle Cloud PlatformGoogle App Engine

Other Google Services Used by Codenvy

First, we enable multi-cursor collaborative editing which is incredibly useful for pair programming, code reviews, or classroom teaching. This is powered by Google Web Toolkit, a framework to write optimized Ajax applications, and Collide, an open source collaboration system published by Google.

Second, oAuth makes it possible to register with a Google account and start coding in seconds.

Third, we support Chromebook development and have certified on Pixel tablets.

Finally, we are preparing Android support in Codenvy. Check out this sample demo of an Android app built in Codenvy and deployed to Manymo’s web-based Android emulator: http://vimeo.com/66157251.

Rapid rate of change. With today’s DevOps and Agile approaches, organizations are rolling out applications daily, if not hourly. With shifting workloads and resources, static reports and even hourly updates won’t suffice.

Highly distributed. As organizations take advantage of cloud services and new technologies like Hadoop, and Cassandra, application environments continue to get more distributed.

Google App Engine takes the pain out of sending iOS push notifications

Monday, July 1, 2013

Delivering scalable, reliable mobile push notifications when hundreds of thousands of users have installed your app on their phones can be a major headache. Fortunately, Google App Engine’s support for sockets and accessible but powerful queues makes it easy to quickly build a mobile backend that can reliably scale to huge numbers of devices.

Get the code!

We’ve created a simple push notification application to help you get started in our Github repository that uses all of the techniques described below. Download or fork the source code to get started.

Your mobile application securely registers itself with Apple to be able to receive push notifications, usually when the app is being launched the first time. It receives a device token, which the mobile application passes to your mobile backend.

Your server opens a secure connection to APNS, and when an event occurs that requires a push notification - your server sends a short message including the device token of the device that should receive the message to APNS. APNS will then handle the ‘last-mile delivery’ of the notification to the device.
