You get 28 free hours unless you are only getting a bill for backend hours
does it matter if the free hours are for front or back?

Subject: [google-appengine] Why am I not allowed to reserve backend instance
hours?

 

In billing, I can pre-commit to X instance hours for the week and I get a
discounted price, $0.05 per hour as opposed to $0.08. So far so good. 

 

Recently, I've been moving my tasks and cron jobs to backend instances so
that there is a clean separation between what needs to execute right away
and what can wait. But then I realized that backend instances don't use the
pre-committed hours. So I end up paying $0.08 per hour for B1 backend
instances rather than $0.05. 

 

    It seems that backend instances are a bad deal, and I should move things
back to front-end instances to benefit from the discounted price! Am I
missing something?
