Hi Bilal, I suppose you are asking why use App Engine?
The article you provided says that you can use App Engine, Compute Engine, Kubernetes Engine, etc... Your question was about App Engine, so I linked the App Engine documentation. In general, the Operational Suite (formerly "Stack Driver") requires some sort of VM to operate the logs. These VMs are hidden from you when you use a Google Service and it's included inside of it, along with the rest of the code. However, in this case I suspect you use your own service/framework for your code and the logs are not embedded as part of the Google infrastructure. So, you need a VM of some sort to merge the logs with GCP's infrastructure tools. Any of the selections above will do. Hope this answers your question.
