[google-appengine] Project Sharding/Load Balancing
Hi All, I build a method for load balancing on GAE. Why?: Yes, I understand that GAE auto scales on application demand. However, it does not balance in the sense of free quota usage. If your free quota app hits the quota limit, wouldn't it be nice to just use another project and that projects free quota? I built something to take advantage of the multiple projects, independent quota limits to use more "free" GAE usage and reduce the need for billable GAE usage. Let me explain: If your project runs out of free quota (and billing is disabled), the app stops functioning. While Google gives you the ability to create 25 different projects, each with an independent quota, none of these projects can share quota. Basically: using only 1 project does not mean you get 25 projects * 28 instance hours for that project. How it works: Basically there is one primary project that handles users (user creation, user sign in, user data, etc.). This project randomly chooses and assigns a secondary project for every use upon account creation. You can have a pool of secondary projects. Users are round-robin load balanced to each secondary to split the load and use more free quota (3 secondaryies = 150k datastore ops, for example).

[google-appengine] Custom domain, no "Compute > App Engine" option.
I'm trying to follow this guide for adding a *non*-Google Apps custom domain: https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/domain#serving_your_app_on_a_custom_domain However, the very first step says: > Go to the Google Developers Console at > https://console.developers.google.com and select your project to see its > dashboard. At the left of the dashboard, select Compute > App Engine > > Settings ... I don't have an "App Engine" option. I have an app engine app running. It's deployed, and heck, even has the remains of a working site (test only), but there is no "App Engine" option.. What am I missing?

[google-appengine] Google App Engine - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.google.appengine.api.datastore.DatastoreServiceFactory
I have an app that is successfully uploading content to a server on Google´s App Engine. What I wanna do now, is retrieve that content using a DataStore constructed like this: DatastoreService datastore = DatastoreServiceFactory.getDatastoreService(); Whenever I call that line, I got the following error: 09-05 11:21:37.922: E/AndroidRuntime(27138): FATAL EXCEPTION: AsyncTask #2Caused by: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.google.appengine.api.datastore.DatastoreServiceFactory I´m unsure at the moment if the problem lies on the application itself, or on the AppEngine. I have already tried to add some suggested JARs to my buildpath, for example appengine-agent.jar and appengineagentimpl.jar without success. I would deeply appreciate any inputs on this.

An interesting thought experiment, but effectively theft. I'm not really sure if there's an ethical application for this?

I am not qualified to provide legal advice but I would expect you would be violating your Terms of Service by doing this. I suggest you put your creativity to work on something else!!

Re: [google-appengine] Google App Engine - java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com.google.appengine.api.datastore.DatastoreServiceFactory
It looks like you're trying to make the Datastore call directly from your Android device, which won't work since the DatastoreServiceFactory only has meaning to an application running within App Engine. Look into App Engine Endpoints: https://cloud.google.com/developers/articles/how-to-build-mobile-app-with-app-engine-backend-tutorial, it'll show you how to move data between your Android device and the App Engine service, and to save data to the datastore by moving it from Android Device -> App Engine app -> Datastore. - -Vinny P Technology & Media Consultant Chicago, IL App Engine Code Samples: http://www.learntogoogleit.com On Fri, Sep 5, 2014 at 9:41 AM, Thiago Graça Couto Braun < thiagoco...@gmail.com> wrote: > I have an app that is successfully uploading content to a server on > Google´s App Engine.

Go to the App Engine admin console at appspot.com, open up your application console, then open the Application Settings page (the link is on the left hand navigation bar). Scroll down until you see a section called "Cloud Integration", similar to this: http://imgur.com/qpEs2ju If you see a Create button, click it and wait 10-15 minutes.

Thanks a lot for the reply, that is very interesting, It might be a good idea to put this information on the UI/form, there might be more like me, I'm assuming either the old CVV works, or there is an established way to request the new CVV from the credit card systems -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group.
