Yes, but in addition to that consider it a feature request that the 
incoming IP address from GAE std to GCE will be easily identifiable (or a 
range). The reason for this is we have some servers that will still be 
accepting requests over their external IP that will be required to be 
encrypted, while the internal ones from GAE can come in unencrypted . To do 
this with MariaDB we need to see the incoming IP address ... so if its 
something like if its in 10.xxx.xxx.xxx we know its internal, and if not 
then its external and requires encryption.
