All depends on what you are doing. I ended up denormalizing my data
model. So I could retrieve my Images by a key or id. I use another table
to link stuff together.
class ThumbStore(db.Model):
thumbId=db.IntegerProperty()
imageId=db.IntegerProperty()
thumbnail=db.BlobProperty()
filename=db.StringProperty() # just for ref in dataviewer
class StoryIdx(db.Model):
storyId=db.IntegerProperty()
thumbId=db.IntegerProperty()
imageId=db.IntegerProperty()
textId = db.IntegerProperty()
So instead of querying the ThumbStore that will hit a dead line error. I
search the StoryIdx table first to find the keys I need in the Thumb table.
