This is a Google AppEngine application running at https://himawari-8.appspot.com/.

• Written in golang
• Uses memcache and always returns the last cached version unless it's too stale
• Asynchronously updates the entries in memcache
• Fault tolerant in that it returns stale data if the server cannot be reached

Install AppEngine for golang and then run dev_appserver.py app.yaml.

Run gcloud app deploy --project=himawari-8.

Move the code into $GOPATH/src/himawari-8. Then run gcloud app deploy.
