Integration of the main benefits of Google Cloud SQL takes place.
A limited preview of Google Cloud SQL was announced this week. App Engine applications can be powered up with the database that features the best cloud management. It allows the users to save time with maintenance, administration and management and to focus on application development only. The main benefits are: availability (data is copied to multi data centers); MySQL database is very familiar to JDBC; the database features DB-API support; better interface and powerful units that help to integrate with Google App Engine.
Its still free and accessible to everybody. Google promises to give at least thirty days before giving full prices :)
