Google App Engine is a platform as a service that allows developers to build and host web applications in Google's infrastructure. It provides scalable hosting for applications on Google's servers and includes services like Memcache, Data Store, and Google Accounts integration. The presentation discussed using App Engine, the Google Plugin for Eclipse, and the App Engine dashboard. It also covered using telephony in the cloud through Twilio's Java client library.
