Published December 9th, 2009 Under Architecture, Open Source Tools, Services | Leave a Comment

In this session we will outline how to connect the Salesforce SOAP Web Services API to Google App Engine for Java. The project includes an open source Web Service Client that has been completely ported to App Engine. This client is designed for high performance and will work with Force.com WSDL’s or other WSDL’s that you may want to connect to. We will discuss the porting effort and demonstrate a simple integration between App Engine and the Salesforce.com. Appirio will demonstrate an advanced casino host application & game which blends App Engine and Salesforce. You’ll learn how both platforms can be developed on side-by-side within the Eclipse IDE.
