I have the transactions working, but it is not fully compatible with web2py DAL, but it could be soon ( needs type coercion, db.table.ALL, etc) Also in web2py, you cannot set the entity group when inserting, so transactions will only involve 1 record. (eg atomically read/ modify/write a counter in a transaction)
If you needed transactions immediately, you could do this: from google.appengine.ext import gdb def txn(): post = db.posts[post_id] post.update_record(title='foo') return post post = gdb.run_in_transaction(txn) On a side note, I have batch operations working too. But I recently read that batch operations are just O(n), which unfortunately means no joins or efficient batch operations will be possible for now, but I have not benchmarked it on the real google datastore to know for sure.
