Brian, You are right. For paying customers this situation is not really acceptable and should be kept to the minimum. People expect from a well known company like Google a high quality service. Higher then from a service provider around the corner. I am pretty sure that this is what Google want to prove.
I have to be honest: this free Google App Engine, its quality, the service and the whole innovative approach is a pleasure and really exiting. More than 6 months we did not experience major problems. This is the first serious one that I encounter. Bringing such infrastructure to the world, monitoring it and taking measures when critical situations occur when tens-of-thousands people are working on it is a major exercise (even an adventure in a certain sense). One simple small error can be critical here. Now the load is growing real scalability will be stress tested. I am confidence that Google will learn from this and improve Google App Engine further. I am also pretty sure this will not be the last interruption. As long as they are kept to the minimum and the frequency is really going down confidence will grow. Come Google guys BEAT that "bug" and go back on track. Success in you efforts to nail this problem down! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
