DESCRIPTION
A hands-on session which will demonstrate how to take an existing application and write a fully functional backend on Google Cloud Platform. We will show you how quickly you can start by using Android Studio integration with Google Cloud Endpoint and hopefully by the end of the session we will have a live backend in production that we all can use. As delivered at DroidCon Tel Aviv 2014 by: Shay Erlichmen, Samba.me http;//il.droidcon.com

Android Studio
An open-source IDE built for Android
• Based on IntelliJ IDEA with coding assistance tools to help write Java code
• Integrated visual and layout designer
• Large number of bundled static code analysis tools (Lint) to help build quality apps
• Integrated with Gradle to enable one build across dev environment (IDE, command line, CI server)
Google Cloud Endpoints
Extremely simple way to build server side logic on full power, management free Google App Engine platform
• Uses App Engine’s auto-scaling and high-availability
• Uses auto-generated, strongly typed, mobile optimized client libraries for Android, iOS and web.
• Exposes standards based REST interfaces with built-in authorization
