The closest equivalent to Google Cloud Platform’s App Engine in AWS (Amazon Web Services) is AWS Elastic Beanstalk. Both services are designed to allow developers to deploy applications without managing the underlying infrastructure, such as servers, networking, and storage. Here’s a quick comparison of the two:

AWS Elastic Beanstalk

• Languages Supported: Java, .NET, PHP, Node.js, Python, Ruby, Go, and Docker.
• Customization: Provides more control over the underlying resources, though you have to manage them to some extent.
• Scaling: Automatic scaling options, but also allow for manual configuration.
• Deployment: Deploy via AWS Management Console, AWS CLI, or IDE plugins.
• Container Support: Offers Docker container support.
• Database: Integration with RDS (Relational Database Service) and other AWS data services requires manual configuration.
• Services: Works well with other AWS services but requires manual setup and integration.

Google App Engine

• Languages Supported: Java, Python, Node.js, Go, Ruby, PHP, and .NET.
• Customization: Less control over underlying resources; more abstracted.
• Scaling: Automatic scaling based on the number of incoming requests.
• Deployment: Deploy via gcloud CLI or from source control like GitHub or GitLab.
• Container Support: Supports custom runtimes with Docker containers through App Engine flexible environment.
• Database: Integrated with Google Cloud Datastore, Firestore, and SQL options; some automatic configuration.
• Services: Designed to work well out-of-the-box with other GCP services like Cloud Storage, BigQuery, etc.

Both services have their pros and cons, and the best one for your needs will depend on the specifics of your project and which cloud ecosystem you prefer to work within.
