Will It Be PHP or Java - The Next App Engine Language

The google app engine roadmap has been publicly released. One of the things that caught my attention was the support for new runtime language. Rumors have been running around that GAE platform will be supporting both java and php but google never confirmed anything.

What if GAE supports PHP?

Both Java and PHP community will be happy but considering that PHP applications can be hosted for as low as 4 USD a month, I dont think people will easily jump from using hosting service to GAE platform.

What if GAE supports Java?

The main reason why people turn away from java is because of the high cost of its hosting. Allowing small java developers/players to host their applications for free will be fantastic.


I created a survey so you can all vote for what you think (and what you want) GAE to support next.
