App Engine
Deploy a JAR to a fully managed PaaS with just one command.
​App Engine is a fully managed Platform-as-a-Service that can run your application, provision a HTTPS load balancer, and scale out your workload as needed. When no one is using your application, it can scale down to zero.
Getting Started
Clone

cd $HOME
2
git clone https://github.com/saturnism/jvm-helloworld-by-example

If this is your first time using App Engine on the project, you'll be prompted to choose a region. Pick the region that's most suitable for your application. This site mostly uses
us-central as an example.Once you select the region, you cannot change it for an App Engine application.
Connect
Once deployed, the command will output the HTTPs URL. To open the URL in your browser:
1
gcloud app browse
Copied!
To find the URL without opening the browser:
1
gcloud app browse --no-launch-browser
Copied!
You can
curl the URL:1
URL=$(gcloud app browse --no-launch-browser)
2
curl ${URL}
Copied!
You can run any Java service in App Engine as long as it's packaged as a JAR file, and can be executed with
java -jar app.jar.Additional Configuration
By default, App Engine will deploy with the smallest
F1instance class. You can specify a larger instance, configure environment variables, and more tuning parameters using an app.yaml:app.yaml
