Event Description
This month at the Sunjug, David Chandler from Google with discuss two technologies for developing and deploying Rich Internet Applications.
What’s New in GWT 2.1
Google Web Toolkit (GWT) lets you build and optimize rich
browser-based apps without having to be an expert in browser quirks,XMLHttpRequest, or JavaScript. In this talk, we'll look at powerful new capabilities in GWT 2.1 including MVP architecture with Activities and Places, client-server communication with RequestFactory, visual layout with GWT Designer for Eclipse, and performance optimization
with SpeedTracer.
Launching scalable apps with Google App Engine
Google AppEngine lets you build and host scalable Web applications written in Python or Java on Google's infrastructure. We'll look at how to build and deploy a GWT+GAE application with Google Plugin for Eclipse and get an overview of building the App Engine way, including
working with the Datastore, task queues, and quotas.

InfoQ Reading List
Cloudflare’s Post-Quantum GeoKey Manager Enters Closed Beta Without Attribute-Based Encryption
Cloudflare has moved a post-quantum rebuild of GeoKey Manager into closed beta, guarding geo-fenced keys with hybrid ML-KEM-768 and X25519 instead of the attribute-based encryption used since 2022. Keys live only in kernel memory on verified regional servers, and any failed check rejects the request, a fail-closed choice practitioners ask could cause a regional outage. GA is planned for Q1 2027.

By Mark SilvesterLocalStack for Azure Enters Public Preview with Security Settings Stored but Not Enforced
LocalStack has opened its Azure emulator to a free public preview, running Azure services locally and accepting existing ARM, Bicep, and Terraform without rewrites. Its own documentation reports partial operation coverage per service and a consistent pattern: configuration is stored and returned, while enforcement of access restrictions, TLS, and network rules is not implemented.
