The quota is actually 500 requests per second..or 30,000 per minute, or 43m per day.
Google says this should be enough to withstand 'the heaviest of slashdottings', but that if you need more, you can request a raising of caps here: http://code.google.com/support/bin/request.py?contact_type=AppEngineCPURequest It is kind of my question now too, though..the question of just how big can an app get on GAE..and how far Google would work with you beyond the quotas here if your app was really successful and really needed more. The next facebook might need to go well beyond these quotas (?) :) On Feb 25, 1:37 pm, gops <patelgo...@gmail.com> wrote: > There is a cap at 30000 Request per Second. well I surely know that , > flikr,facebook,youtube or any big out there is getting more hits than > that... > > so possibility of making some next generation supercool site only on > google app engine is impossible ?? > > { yeh , i know , the chances that my application goes to that level is > very know , but having confidance that , if it goes by some chance , i > don't have to worry about server side > is a good relief.... -- another idea is , if it goes to that level , > surely i will have enough fund to buy my own server farms -- but > that's exactly we don't want to do -- and anyhow , we are > giving money so why there is cap at 30000 Req per second ???? :D } > > On Feb 25, 8:52 am, DenNukem <alt...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > Looking at new quotas I see "Data Sent to [datastore] API" capped at > > "153 MByte/min". > > Uhm.
