Hi Amir I really appreciate the documentation. I used to know it like the back of my hand but lately I've noticed a lot of changes. Personally I'd like to see more documentation that gets to the delineation between Compute Engine / Managed VMs / App Engine. Specifically when it comes to services.
Some services like Datastore work quickly and without authentication in both Managed VMs (java-compat at least) and traditional App Engine. What is the performance cost of using that service from Compute Engine? I can test it myself but some examples would be awesome. With other services like Cloud SQL the Managed VM is much more like Compute Engine... you have to have a strategy for authentication. And for my usage performance of Cloud SQL is relatively the same across offerings. I know these offerings blur--and as a developer I love choice... but I think clear documentation and for me especially some insight to the service/API *roadmap *would be welcome. Will Search API be usable from compute engine?[*] <https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/google-appengine/d59b6b7d-7199-4490-96ed-983481b3df27%40googlegroups.com?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer> Will Managed VMs eventually scale to custom metrics? How does scaling in compute engine compare to scaling for Managed VMs? Is datastore access from Compute Engine and Managed VM environment comparable? These are the types of questions I think developers need to get on the right platform. I'm currently moving from Managed VM over to Compute Engine. Some things about that decision still leave me uneasy. I love some of the API offerings and I don't want to lose out on performance. Roadmaps! App Engine rocks. Keep pushing.
