While on MS, we used to have datastore timeouts all the time and it

This is really scary. I'm not so obsessed about the price increase as

OK with training some speed against increase reliability, the promise
of HRD, but at some point, you need to draw a line: what tells us it's
not going to take 500ms to do basic queries a year from now?

App Engine team: what's your explanation for this? Are you going to
put clauses in the SLA to guarantee max average get / put / query
latencies? Seems to me that if you want to go enterprise-focus
that's needed.

 the latency is that much higher than it was.  Why does the load have
 such a big impact on latency of datastore query?

 We keep very detailed statistics about the latency of our services 
 and
 its clear by our average latencies that it has creeped up over time.
 It is roughly 200ms higher than it was when we first moved over to
 HRD.

The SLA does not really offer me any peace of mind.  If the datastore slows 
down to the point where requests are taking 5 seconds to return then my app 
is as good as dead.  But the SLA doesn't cover performance problems - only 
errors.  If my app becomes so slow that it starts to throw DEE's then that 
is probably considered a problem with the application code rather than an 
infrastructure error.

Look at Aug 29,

Bringing this back to billing, there's no sla on the datastore, so spikes

I am just trying to give an signal to everyone before something bad could

I would be interested in what the gae team has to say about this.  It

Yes, I agree that it won't (can't) get as bad as m/s did get because
HRD is awesome.  My concern is mostly over how they provision and that
the latency is that much higher than it was.  Why does the load have
such a big impact on latency of datastore query?

We keep very detailed statistics about the latency of our services and
its clear by our average latencies that it has creeped up over time.
It is roughly 200ms higher than it was when we first moved over to
HRD.

This is really scary. I'm not so obsessed about the price increase as
this is something you can control, but if the HRD starts becoming
slower and slower, there's absolutely nothing you can do. According to
these official graphs, it's literally 2X slower than 1 year ago. I'm
OK with training some speed against increase reliability, the promise
of HRD, but at some point, you need to draw a line: what tells us it's
not going to take 500ms to do basic queries a year from now?

App Engine team: what's your explanation for this? Are you going to
put clauses in the SLA to guarantee max average get / put / query
latencies? Seems to me that if you want to go enterprise-focus
that's needed.

I will disagree with this post. We were on MS earlier and now on HRD.
While on MS, we used to have datastore timeouts all the time and it
was driving me insane looking at 20-30k error emails come in. After
the move to HRD, everything is stable and there are no datastore
timeouts anymore. I am happy with the move.

I think the point of this post is the trend.  At one time master-slave
also performed quite well, then we'd see trends where latency
increased until a blowup.  These graphs show a similar pattern to
that: increasing latencies over time.  We would like to know that: 1)
the trend won't continue, 2) we won't start seeing massive blowups.

As for the SLA, see the exclusions section.  SLAs are fairly worthless
in my honest opinion anyway, so this probably isn't really something
to worry about though.

I agree on both fronts.

Yes, M/S was a JOKE.  Once moving to HRD I have not seen a datastore
timeout at all.
Until earlier this week I saw a small series of them.  I really hope
we are not going back to what we are all used to on M/S.  The old M/S
problem days were always written off as well, it's good enough for a
free service.  Now this is hardly free service.  In fact it is top
dollar service, so I'd hope that datastore issue DO NOT RETURN.

2011-09-02 Thread Pol
Our app has been on HRD since the beginning and indeed, the past few
days for the time ever, I saw some timeouts. To be clear, not timeouts
due to contention which we get as expected now and then on
transactions, but timeout on the db itself.

Our usage patterns haven't changed though, so it would expect it to be
on GAE's end.
