since I brought up the issue of the Google App Engine (GAE) (or
similar services, such as Amazon's EC2 "Elastic Compute Cloud"), I
thought I give a brief overview of what it can and cannot do, such

Thanks Godmar for posting the overview.

Any thoughts about a convenient way of storing and (more importantly) indexing & retrieving MARC records using GAE's Bigtable?
