Hi Jason,
The stats from Analytics are from a usage ("marketing") perspective:
where (geographically) do your users come from, when do they come over
the day, what do they see most on your site, how to they navigate,
etc...
The stats and infos delivered by GAE are more from a technical
standpoint: which servlets are called, how long do they need to
execute, what are their errors, what kind of data are stored in the
datastore, how big are they, how much resources (CPU, disks, etc.) do
you consume, what did the admins of the app do, etc...
There is a bit of redondance in data when you use both but they are
presented from different perspectives.
So, to manage your application thoroughly you need both.
That were my 2 cents ;-)
regards
didier
