Yes, I mean the node as computational unit, the JVM. Thanks for the
clear explanation!

I think he wants to control how many JVMs GAE spawn up to run
your app. obviously the answer is no.

[appengine-java] Re: node allocation

2010-06-01 Thread Tristan
Ok, if I interpret PC as personal computer -> a client machine. Using
that interpretation what you're describing sounds like a botnet (like
SETI at home), not a cloud service as I understand it in the modern
sense. In this case, I'm not saying it's not possible, I just haven't
come across it yet, maybe someone else tried to use App Engine for
that purpose.

If I interpret PC as a computational unit doing work on the App Engine
service, then I think the short answer is "no", it's not possible.

When you upload your application to App Engine, it will spool up one
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) to serve your requests when a reqeust comes
in, as more and more requests come in, more and more JVMs will be
started to handle those and you will pay more and more for the
computing resources. So in that sense, if you think of each JVM as a
"node", no, you cannot control that yourself. It is automated.

I'm still not sure what we're talking about, but maybe the above
helps?

Hi,

Sorry for not being clear. I mean the node involved in running my app
in the cloud --> the PC. I would like to control how many computers
will run my app. Is it possible?

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "node" in the context of Google
App Engine?
