Re: [google-appengine] is there any way to access data of another app better than rpc?

[thor.djdq]

can you just show me the other ways?

i am considering a new app. there is no determined use case now. i would
make up my mind after comparing all the ways.

That's great to hear!

Unfortunately, some users experience difficulty sending email, especially
to corporate/Microsoft owned services such as Hotmail. See the following
threads for examples/anecdotes:

email sent by GAE would be regarded as spam for some email
services
SendGrid 
Integration
sending mail with google apps account from GAE application ends up in
hotmail spam 
folder

Clearly PK, you're doing something right; maybe your email text is
"unspammy", or perhaps many of your users are adding your email address to
their addressbooks. But for others, using external mail services is much
more straightforward and powerful; SendGrid in particular offers a bunch of
useful analytics on their dashboard.

Then the domain wasn't originally added as an alias domain. When you add
multiple domains to Google Apps, you can choose to set the domains as
independent domains, or as alias domains. See this picture:

Even BigQuery is cheaper for storage than Datastore now.  Totally helps us, 
since BQ is a better solution for one of our data entities anyway, and the 
rest should fit in the 1GB free for the foreseeable future.

[google-appengine] Managed VMs - Limitations

[Kinesh Patel]

Just trying to get a handle on what we can and can't accomplish with 
managed VM's. 

(1) The demos provided utilized manual scaling. Is auto scaling an option? 
e.g. Will app engine spin up / down based on request load?

(2) Seems like I can install anything on a Managed VM with apt-get. Are 
there any other ways to install things? Can I run a startup script and load 
any arbitrary software from a server of my choosing, for example?

(3) Can I load a persistent disk of my choosing on a managed VM?

(4) When I'm writing backend code, what do I need to consider?  e.g. a 
request is routed to a managed VM with my full software stack installed, 
but I additionally have access to other libraries I've specified. In 
Python, does this mean that I need to ensure my imports are isolated so 
that normal requests don't try to import those dependencies?

(5) Let's say I want to use MongoDB or Cassandra instead of the datastore. 
Is now possible to mount a persistent disk with a different database on a 
managed VM, so I can use any database I want just as efficiently as I use 
the datastore today? (i.e. the VM's are colocated and I dont need to use 
URLFetch to get anything as I have to do now with App Engine).

Any insights are appreciated as the documentation is still not out there!

Sorry, I might have missed something, but how would Google Cloud DNS allow

[google-appengine] Push-to-Deploy does nothing

[Emanuele Ziglioli]

Hi everyone, 

I understand this is brand new (for Java at least), very exciting though.

I've managed to push my java repo to the cloud, have set it to run a Java 
Maven Build, pushed again but nothing happens. From the command line I see 
"Execution started" but nothing appears on the Google cloud console. 

If I go to my app's appengine dashboard, I don't see an "Enable 
Push-to-Deploy" button, as they mention 
here.
 
All I see is:


Push-to-Deploy is now available in the Google Cloud Console

Click here to access it.

My app is 3 years old, perhaps that option is available only for new apps?
I've got billing enabled for both Appengine and Cloud Storage.
There's a pom.xml file in the source folder root, I use Maven myself.

Another minor problem: can't push or pull from Egit, the Eclipse plugin due 
to an authentication error with my Google Accoun. I've tried entering one 
of those long String password I use for Android auth, and that doesn't work 
either. It seems Google Cloud perhaps doesn't support that form of 
authentication. 
>From the cloud console apparently I should be able to see a "Generate git 
password" link , 
can't see that.

Regards,
Emanuele

[google-appengine] Re: Managed VMs - Limitations

[Emanuele Ziglioli]

Can I add a couple of questions about all this works?
I've watched the keynote.

At a certain point Chris says "we're opening App Engine".
That makes me think that suddenly the VM a GAE instance runs in becomes 
customizable.
But that doesn't seem the case, as far as I understand, it means GAE 
instances will connect to Compute Engine VMs via Websockets, is that how it 
works?

Thanks

[Philip]

It would be great if Google would have changed the prices for bandwidth as 
well. Its sad there is no volume discount.

Re: [google-appengine] When will App Engine officially support JDK 8 / Java 8

[Emanuele Ziglioli]

I was asking specifically to Jeff, as he's a library designer. I'd love to 
move to Java 8, but with the most deployed java platform not supporting it 
I'm afraid about writing code that can't be reused.
I'd love to see it on GAE, I'd love to see all Java features on it, current 
ones as well as futures ones

[google-appengine] What to do with a bad instance?

[Alex Burgel]

Every so often (once a month or less), I get an instance that just doesn't 
work. Every request fails with some error in library code that indicates 
something is profoundly screwed up, like an import fails or some line of 
obviously correct code throws an exception.

When this has happened in the past, I would get a bunch of error emails and 
I would just shutdown the instance and hope that it was a fluke. Today it 
happened while I was on a flight, so for about 3 hours, this broken 
instance was returning errors for most of the requests hitting my app.

This is the exception (app named changed to protect the innocent):

Traceback (most recent call last):

Clearly a NameError in SDK code means that something is very wrong. Yet, 
this instance happily continued serving traffic for hours.

Are there not some smoke tests or verification tests that are run before an 
instance is put into production? How does everybody else deal with this 
problem?

I figured it out...I used the cloud playground to examine the guestbook.py 
code and saw that my file had some additional code that needed to be 
removed. Everything is working as expected now.

[google-appengine] Re: What to do with a bad instance?

[timh]

Go back through the logs for the instance, and see if it had a 
DeadlineExceeded Error during startup.  

My guess is you are not using warmup requests, and the instance hasn't 
started properly leaving imports in a bad state.

This used to happen a lot in the early days when startup times in python 
could be unreliable on M/S.

The only way to deal with it at the time (because you couldn't kill 
instances) was to wrap the entire handler in a try block, and if you got an 
import error inside the handler
I would allocate enough memory to kill the instance.

Cheers

Tim

Choosing the best way to access data depends on the use case, so it would
probably be better to figure out the use case first. Nevertheless, since
you asked for alternatives:

1. Write a simple REST API to access and modify the app data. Probably the
best solution since you can customize the API to emit and accept data using
your preferred syntax (JSON or XML, etc).

2. Assuming the app you want to access is on App Engine, you can directly
connect with the Remote API and use resources under the application's name:
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/tools/remoteapi

3. Again assuming the app is on App Engine, you can access the different
persistent data services directly. For instance, the datastore can be
accessed through the Cloud Datastore service:
https://developers.google.com/datastore/docs/getstarted/start_java/ . The
Cloud SQL and Cloud Storage services can also be accessed by different
applications by whitelisting their IDs.
