You will have to pay a bit for storage in the blobstore, where in effect static storage is free. Otherwise bandwidth usage is the same. Another benefit of static is you can explicitly set caching headers - for both the edge-cache and the browser cache. The blobstore urls, have a default caching header I beleive - but you cant set a really long caching time. Also static requests can follow you around on version automatically (ie different version so a app will get different files automatically) whereas that will have to be done manually with the blobstore. > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Google App Engine" group. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msg/google-appengine/-/fVSpDS4gRBoJ. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine?hl=en. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Google App Engine" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
