I have started to suspect that Google on purpose is killing GAE. Because they know by now that they will not get enough large customers. See for example this article: http://blog.labslice.com/2010/12/2010-cloud-computing-winner.html which shows that GAE has a very tiny market share. I think the main reason is that the GAE datastore has too limited and non-standard functionality.
And they don't kill GAE immediately because that would not only make many existing customers very angry but also media would then report about how Google has failed with yet another product, and this time in the important cloud computing space. Not good. So they make a slow kill and hope it will go under the radar of big media. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
