In theory with the Flex enviroment. Basically run custom docker images. https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/custom-runtimes/about-custom-runtimes https://www.google.com/search?q=elasticsearch+docker The main issue I imagine would there isn't a 'persistent' disk as such (to store the index). The docker image at startup would have to download the index from say Cloud Storage > 2. If it is possible, how would one connect to Elasticsearch from other > GAE services given that GAE has ephemeral IP addresses? > I imagine be able setup ES to just listen to port 8080 with the its HTTP API http://nocf-www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/modules-http.html Then can just connect to the instance(s) using the 'appspot.com' hostname. Maybe the healthcheck pings might need a bit of special consideation https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/python/how-instances-are-managed Although might be better to use say nginx as the front end as can add an 'authentication' layer, to prevent direct access to your ES instances. > > Thanks! > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Google App Engine" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine. > To view this discussion on the web visit https://groups.google.com/d/ > msgid/google-appengine/d1f42fab-0a8a-485a-a2cb- > 33ccc3f2807c%40googlegroups.com > <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/google-appengine/d1f42fab-0a8a-485a-a2cb-33ccc3f2807c%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> > . > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
