Thank you Ryan the post provided exactly what I needed to hear about Datastore api behaviour. I will be tuned in for your Google I-O presentation.
In some respects I am relieved to read that an App is usually only served from one location because if not I would have remained puzzled as to how Google overcame the speed of light to achieve timely strong Datastore consistency. Your post has triggered the following question and I would be grateful if your Google I-O talk covered the following. Last year I noticed that GAE hosted my trial App within 30ms of my UK location i.e. somewhere in Europe. Such automatic hosting geo affinity is highly impressive but what if an App's admin is UK based but the expected user community is centered on the USA? Will the App's hosted location drift towards the bulk of users over time or does the admin's location pin down the location? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
