Des Moines Web Geeks

Google App Engine is part of the Google Cloud Platform, and it's a powerful set of tools. In this lunch event, we'll hear from Jason Jones (Gain Compliance) who has a lot of experience using Google App Engine and can explain the difference between the service and its popular competitors like Amazon Web Services. We'll be meeting at the Global Insurance Accelerator in the East Village at noon. You are welcome to BYOL (bring your own lunch). We hope to see you there!
Parking: Leverage street parking on 4th and Walnut first; if you can't find parking on the street you can grab a spot in our lot (to the south of the building).
Access: From the front of the building, look for a door marked "Global Insurance Accelerator" and from the back entrance, come in under the awning and take the marked door to the left.
