I'm looking for the pros/cons of pulling jQuery & other JS libraries from Google API's cloud as opposed to downloading files and deploying directly.
What say you?
The likelihood of the lib already cached on the users system is the overriding factor for me, so I'm going with a permalink to googleapis.com (e.g. ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/…). I agree with others here that loss of access to the Google server cloud is a minimal concern.
The Google API Client Library for JavaScript is designed for JavaScript client-application developers. It offers simple, flexible access to many Google APIs. Note: This repo does not contain the source code for the gapi client.
Cloud Client Libraries are the latest and recommended client libraries for calling Google Cloud APIs. Cloud Client Libraries provide an optimized developer experience by using each supported language's natural conventions and styles.
Google Cloud APIs are programmatic interfaces to Google Cloud Platform services. They are a key part of Google Cloud Platform, allowing you to easily add the power of everything from computing to networking to storage to machine-learning-based data analysis to your applications.
