I just read this post http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~silver/gae.html
The author seems unhappy with App Engine's offerings and have switched to EC2, saying when the app scales big, the cost is very high (he used the old Master/Slave datastore with high latency counted against CPU time). I myself like app engine a lot because from what I heard it offers good scalability without complex setup and maintenance. But I don't have much experience with it to say if the claims in the above post are true. Especially now there are changes in pricing, I'm afraid the costs may be driven a lot higher. Can anyone who is having a popular app on app engine give me your thoughts on the post? Do you see the new pricing scheme make scaling app a lot more expensive? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
