Call Firebase database from Google App Engine

I followed this tutorial for setting up my Google App Engine instance and I am also using Firebase. My goal is to put all of the "computation" on Google App Engine. I want to call a function like this one below:

MyEndpoint:

package productions.widowmaker110.backend;

/** An endpoint class we are exposing */
@Api(
 name = "myApi",
 version = "v1",
 namespace = @ApiNamespace(
 ownerDomain = "backend.widowmaker110.productions",
 ownerName = "backend.widowmaker110.productions",
 packagePath=""
 )
)
public class MyEndpoint {

 /** A simple endpoint method that takes a name and says Hi back */
 @ApiMethod(name = "sayHi")
 public MyBean sayHi(@Named("name") String name) {

 // Write a message to the database
 FirebaseDatabase database = FirebaseDatabase.getInstance();
 DatabaseReference myRef = database.getReference("message");

 // Read from the database
 myRef.addValueEventListener(new ValueEventListener() {
 @Override
 public void onDataChange(DataSnapshot dataSnapshot) {
 // This method is called once with the initial value and again
 // whenever data at this location is updated.
 String value = dataSnapshot.getValue(String.class);
 Log.d(TAG, "Value is: " + value);
 }

 @Override
 public void onCancelled(DatabaseError error) {
 // Failed to read value
 Log.w(TAG, "Failed to read value.", error.toException());
 }
 });

 MyBean response = new MyBean();
 response.setData("Hi, " + name);

 return response;
 }

}

MainActivity:

package productions.widowmaker110.gpsweather;

// imports...

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

    new EndpointsAsyncTask().execute(new Pair<Context, String>(this, "Manfred"));
 }

 class EndpointsAsyncTask extends AsyncTask<Pair<Context, String>, Void, String> {
    private MyApi myApiService = null;
  private Context context;

 @Override
 protected String doInBackground(Pair<Context, String>... params) {
   if(myApiService == null) { // Only do this once
      MyApi.Builder builder = new MyApi.Builder(AndroidHttp.newCompatibleTransport(),
      new AndroidJsonFactory(), null)
      // options for running against local devappserver
      // - 10.0.2.2 is localhost's IP address in Android emulator
      // - turn off compression when running against local devappserver
     .setRootUrl("http://10.0.2.2:8080/_ah/api/")
     .setGoogleClientRequestInitializer(new GoogleClientRequestInitializer() {
 @Override
 public void initialize(AbstractGoogleClientRequest<?> abstractGoogleClientRequest) throws IOException {
    abstractGoogleClientRequest.setDisableGZipContent(true);
 }
 });
 // end options for devappserver

 myApiService = builder.build();
 }

 context = params[0].first;
 String name = params[0].second;

 try {
 return myApiService.sayHi(name).execute().getData();
 } catch (IOException e) {
 return e.getMessage();
 }
 }

 @Override
 protected void onPostExecute(String result) {
 Toast.makeText(context, result, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
 }
 }
}

I understand the above code for Firebase is Android specific so running on a Google App Engine instance doesn't work. I was wondering if any one knows how to perform CRUD operations on a firebase database from Google App Engine backend. Any help is appreciated.
