We are starting a new project that requires two main components:

1. Backend for task management, e.g retrieve a task from a queue and
according to some specific logic validate it.
2. Run a real compiler on that specific task and create an executable
that an end user should receive.

We love app engine, however the second part will require a concrete
instance where an actual compiler will have to be installed, app
engine is not capable here. We were thinking to mix both app engine
and aws instances to accomplish the task (part 1 will be app engine
and part 2 will be aws).

All of our senses say it's a bad idea:

1. unneeded traffic between the two providers, someone needs to pay
for that unfortunately.
2. We'll have to deal with two systems, two deployments process, each
system has its own quirks --> double the work.

But we love app engine.

Does anyone has any experience in combining the two systems? any
recommendations ?
