There is a download all data option for apps, though you do have to mirror your java classes in python, which is a pain. A better option would be to port directly in appengine. This is easier if you know all the table names, but I will assume otherwise. public void transferNS(String nsFrom, S

Hey Chris, A couple ideas about how to help us help you help us get better load balancing. If it were possible to define different classes of instances to target, perhaps we could use a request header? Either an X-AE-Expected-Latency or X-AE-Instance-Class; The former to let an auto-balancer k

Ok, so I hex dumped my local file, and it has the app id all over the place. You may be able to try out the remote api between local installations, or you're going to need to grep/cat find/replace the app ids in a copy of your local ds If you don't like either of these options, write a servle

Do not rely on a frontend instance's RAM-cache. The instances do not share RAM and the only way you can directly address a particular instance is using a front-facing backend, as noted by Gerald. The trouble is, even if you could safely store all your ints in addressable RAM space, you are goi

I definitely, absolutely love the idea of having appengine internally route foo.com/api to api.foo.appspot.com. An under-the-covers targeting of different apps/versions is the only way I can think of to get ssl for the whole app without having to deal with how browsers handle the *.appspot.co

Async everything will always save you instance hours. It doesn't matter if you are threadsafe or not, the async operations allow you to perform a ds / memcahce / url fetch in a background thread, which you can check on whenever you want. Async is extremely useful if you use it to perform "data
