What is the defined scope of a datastore as used by your JDO/JPA code
in a Java application deployed on GAE? Can you only insert/retrieve
data for a pre-defined datastore associated with your running app, or
can you connect to another application's datastore and insert/retrieve
data from that data store as well?

Example:

Consider a very large data-mining application written and deployed on
GAE as separate applications:

1. Harvester -- application scrubs the web all day long looking for
information and inserting it into it's data store. Lots of the new
experiemntal Task API used here.

2. Website -- website used by customers to search the compiled data,
create accounts, and do other compelling things with it -- like rank
it. This would be reading/updating data from App #1's datastore.

3. Admin -- website used by admins to manually modify the information
in the system -- again, manipulating the data from App #1's datastore.


Is this possible? Or would I just have to model this entire
application as a single huge GAE application in order to allow all
those pieces to share access to the datastore that the Harvester
creates and maintains?

Thanks for the assist guys.

Best,
Riyad
