Hi, 

I am basically non- technical person willg to learn more about the google app enginee and cloud computing.

App Engine offers standard and flexible environment to be chosen from for your application. Both of these environments, have the same code-centric developer workflow, scale quickly and efficiently to handle increasing demand, and enable you to use Google’s proven serving technology to build your web, mobile, and IoT applications quickly and with minimal operational overhead. While the available environments have a lot in common, they differ in a few important ways which can be read on this doc[1].

I would suggest deploying a simple application on App Engine as a starting point. You can choose the runtime of your choice from this doc[2] and deploy a simple hello world application to get a basic idea.

You can further view database options such as Cloud Storage[3], CloudSQL[4], Cloud Bigtable[5] etc. App Engine is a scalable system which will automatically add more capacity as workloads increase. You can view whole list of products and services from here[6] and explore further.

App Engine lets you code and deploy suitable programs as web applications. As such, some knowledge of programming and web fundamentals is usually needed to use App Engine.

With just web fundamentals (HTML, CSS, Javascripts, images...) you can use App Engine to deploy a purely static website: see https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/standard/python/getting-started/hosting-a-static-website .

Most often, you will also need to know something about programming. There are good tutorials, including free ones, such as https://www.udemy.com/learn-google-appengine-its-cake/ -- which requires you to know something about programming in Python; to learn the latter skill, you can of course use other tutorials, including free ones, such as https://www.udemy.com/learning-python-not-the-snake/ .

App Engine supports other languages besides Python, but I would strongly recommend Python, today's most popular language according to a recent study published at  http://spectrum.ieee.org/computing/software/the-2017-top-programming-languages , and the most frequently taught programming language at top US universities according to https://cacm.acm.org/blogs/blog-cacm/176450-python-is-now-the-most-popular-introductory-teaching-language-at-top-u-s-universities/fulltext . (Of course, I could be biased:-).
