This GAE is a joke keeps coming in the group from time to time so it is a joke by itself by now. For me it is a wonderful platform, provided you know what are you doing, do not forget it is a tool you got to know how to use, just optimize your code for it and it delivers for you.
Contrary to what Mr Locke's thinking Gae is THE DEFINITION of cloud computing. I know there exists an early definition of cloud computing based on just economic terms, cloud is more about technology than economy besides, yes you pay more you get more but who on earth told you that are not things on earth that money couldn't buy ? And what is 500 request/ second [if you want more ask for more?] is telling you ? and datastore 1 gigabyte free; no maximum ! etc.. etc. isn't it the definition of scalability ? who is going to wait for your page for more than 30 seconds ? All this Email talk reminds me of other conspiracy theories, could you give me a reasonable answer why Google would bother to look after to delay an Email if it is not going to a gmail recipient ? As for Thanasis ... I hope Google will not mesh up with php and all the trouble involved, and by the way... IF your coding looks like your English in your postings I am sure you will have trouble with GAE or any other platform for that matter -> " Prablem related to stopservice() ethod of Service class " (calm down just a may be hot remark from a compatriot trying to help - no hard feelings) Happy coding !
