[google-appengine] Where's My Stuff - An Appengine app to help you stop forgetting where your stuff is

2014-09-24 Thread Corey Gilmore
A quick and simple app I wrote to learn Golang and GAE. Well, I build a few smaller pointless apps and then dove right into this. Loved how simple GAE is to use and really like using Go. Basically, the app helps you keep track of your stuff so you can throw out the sticky notes you lose any

[google-appengine] Project Sharding/Load Balancing

2014-09-05 Thread Corey Gilmore
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 projec

[google-appengine] Re: Datastore Small Operations Help

2012-01-08 Thread Corey
I believe the only small operations are (a) getting a key from an index in a query, and (b) allocating a new key. (b) doesn't come up too often for me but (a) is useful in reducing Database Read costs by allowing me to grab the keys for a query (already sorted) before actually getting the entity c

[google-appengine] Re: Pricing and how to keep costs down?

2012-01-08 Thread Corey
In my experience the pricing for hobby apps is quite good and in general you'll find that light usage will fall under the free quota. If you decide to go to production, the heavy costs come in a couple forms: - datastore reads/writes - storage costs - frontend instance costs How much each of

[google-appengine] Re: Mixing aws and app engine servers

2012-01-08 Thread Corey
We've had similar needs. We typically create an API (and shared secret) on the remote server that App Engine calls (or vice versa). If you want to update the two systems independently you just need to maintain backwards compatibility for a time. For example, let's say AppEngine is your frontend a

Johnson, could you please elaborate a bit? Are you suggesting that AppEngine provide a way to buffer the index updates or that there's already a way to do that? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group. To post to this group, send em

2012-01-05 Thread Corey [Firespotter]
if we treat the geobox update as a one-time cost, we have other properties like scores, labels, etc that require occasional tweaking. Updating even a single indexed property across all these entities costs us $60-$100 and typically many times that in practice because these interesting fields tend to b

I am using the bulkloader to move data from one App Engine app to another (server-hosted app or local dev). I've got the configuration file setup and the datastore entities migrate nicely, but I'm having trouble migrating the blobstore files. Assuming I can pull down all the blobstore files from

[google-appengine] using z3c.rml on AppEngine?

Rats! Scuppered the subject. Sorry about the re-post! Has anyone succeeded in using z3c.rml with AppEngine yet? I've got a need to create a complex and long document that something like a z3c.rml would be much handier. I've spent the best part of today trying (in vain) to get it simply working
