Google App Engine provides a runtime environment that uses the Python programming language. Google states that other programming languages and runtime environment configurations are being considered for future releases. Currently, Google says that the application code must be written exclusively in Python. Code with extensions written in C are not going to be supported. Google also states, that other programming languages may be supported in the future.

“Every Google App Engine application will have enough CPU, bandwidth, and storage to serve around 5 million monthly page-views.” (Google)

Google is having a very large two day developer gathering in San Francisco event May 28th – 29th concerning this new APP as well as other sessions, information can be found here.
