There's also always Amazon's EC2...

Yeah, but the nice thing about app engine is that it's *just* app server, nothing else. So you don't have to muck with IPs, sys admin, configs, updates or whatever. Whereas EC2 is just like a box, you have to do everything yourself (but don't have to deal with hardware).

Alas, the environment is too restricted to use even plain WO (or EOF with any common DB). One would need to write a new WOAdaptor, not create worker threads and then you'd have a single-threaded machine that might go down any minute. Given some of my apps almost take 20 secs to launch, that's not an attractive option... would make a nice hack, though :)

WO in the cloud, anyone?
