[google-appengine] Re: Connecting from app engine instance to compute engine instance directly

2015-05-07 Thread Hussein Vastani
Hi, At my current gig we've been grappling with the same problem, and there seems to be a solution in the 1.9.19 SDK release (finally!). So my context is: my java frontend instances need to hit my elasticsearch cluster hosted on GCE. The only way to reach the cluster was via a reverse proxy

The ability to specify the network for a Managed VM is huge! Thank you! Goodbye unnecessary public-exposed proxies! On Thursday, April 16, 2015 at 2:28:51 PM UTC-4, Sarah Murphy wrote: *Java* - appcfg now outputs a warning if OAuth2 is not used for authentication - When deploying or

[google-appengine] App Engine + UrlFetch - GCE Elasticsearch cluster = latency

2015-03-02 Thread Hussein Vastani
I just need to wail about this: My App Engine/Java app hits my Elasticsearch cluster hosted on GCE, using URLFetch. The Elasticsearch queries themselves execute under 10ms. The response coming back to App Engine typically takes 120ms. The Elasticsearch cluster is fronted by reverse proxy

Sorry, my bad. I was setting the handler's http response status to 204, which seemed to be messing up blobstore service. Setting the handler's response status to 200 fixes blobstore downloads. On Friday, February 13, 2015 at 9:49:47 PM UTC-5, Hussein Vastani wrote: Hi all, I have a java

Hi all, I have a java app engine application thats under development, currently running on v 1.9.17. Since this afternoon (Fri Feb 13, 2015), any attempts to download blobs with a blobKey (as described in the docs https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/java/blobstore/#Java_Serving_a_blob)

[google-appengine] Managed VM networking with other GCE VMs, like AWS security group?

2014-11-12 Thread Hussein Vastani
Hi all, I'm wondering if this is possible: I'd like to use a (secured) backend Managed VM to act as a load balancing reverse proxy to a cluster of GCE VMs hosting ElasticSearch. So the ES cluster VMs will not have public internet IPs and the managed VM accesses the Elasticsearch VMs using their
