Hi there, from the yesterday I started to see a lot of deadline exceptions, memcache writes exceptions, datastore exceptions - I haven't changed the code from last 6 month and I've just tried to fix those errors by playing with idle/automatic instance spinning but its getting just worse (even i

We have released a new version of the experimental Python development server. We think that it is very usable at this point and has some significant improvements over the existing version. To download: http://code.google.com/p/appengine-devappserver2-experiment/downloads/detail?name=devappserver2-

At the moment, I have a config that is almost bearable: I am running 1 idle, 1 max resident. I also have a script peppering the site with requests once every 10 seconds to keep a dynamic instance alive. I will be rolling out client side retries on the idempotent REST calls. I am also moving non-

Re: [google-appengine] Scale problem. How to handle traffic peak when adverting product?

2013-01-20 Thread Igor Kharin
Hello Max, Definitely the best option is to stick with AppEngine (zero setup + scaling), then I'd need a paid app with 5+ resident instances as fallback and some big "max idle instances" to let them sit there running for the time of campaign. We're pretty much left with just Python or Go, because
