Govindad, Your code running on GAE has two types of time limitations - Web Requests serving clients are limited to 30 seconds. Code invoked by scheduled cron jobs or code invoked by GAE Task mechanism is limited to 10 minutes.
Now when your code needs to fetch data from 3rd party services/servers you use GAE's UrlFetch functionality. UrlFetch has a default deadline of 5 seconds, and it can be programmatically set to a maximum of 10 seconds. Read about UrlFetch here: http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/java/urlfetch/overview.html Michael Weinberg On Jan 18, 12:00 am, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I am new to GAE.
