I'm thinking about migrating my App Engine Project to Java11. Will Cloud Endpoints Frameworks eventually support Java11 or do I need to switch to a different framework?
1 Answers
The best way to know if the support will be added, is by opening an issue on the github page of Cloud Endpoints Framework
Google recently launched a new service called API gateway, this is like a new version of Cloud Endpoints both works by using OpenAPI v2 and can work as a replacement for Cloud Endpoints Framework, I deployed a hello world application in App engine standrad using Java 11 and works as is expected, please check the API Gateway+App Engine quickstart to know how to deploy an API Gateway service for your App Engine service
Technically API gateway will be use a service account to authenticate all incoming requests by using Cloud IAP, for example:
[request] --> [API gateway] --[request+ auth w/service account]-->[Cloud IAP] --> [App Engine]

I think you are mixing up Cloud Endpoints and the Cloud Endpoints Framework. **Cloud Endpoints Framework** - *"Endpoints Frameworks is a web framework for the App Engine standard Python 2.7 and Java 8 runtime environments. Cloud Endpoints Frameworks provides the tools and libraries that allow you to generate REST APIs and client libraries for your application."* **Cloud Endpoints**- *"Endpoints is an API management system that helps you secure, monitor, analyze, and set quotas on your APIs using the same infrastructure Google uses for its own APIs."* – Hugo Sep 23 '20 at 19:35
