Abstract
The Personal Health Records (PHR) system stores all the personal health information about the residents. As an infrastructure database system, there are many challenges in its development. It explores the characteristics of PHR system and studies the cloud computing technology: Google App Engine. Then, according to the study result, a PHR system is designed and developed on Google App Engine. The technologies of Google App Engine are very suitable for solving problems such as scalability and semi-structure data modeling.
