[google-appengine] Re: Question about dynamic backends

2011-05-13 Thread Justin Haugh
Good question. Here's how this works. For the moment, let's only consider resident backends: 1) Backends are charged for uptime by the minute. 2) Whenever a backend instance goes down, the system will continue to bill for an extra 15 minutes. 3) If a backend comes back up within the 15 minute

Hey Jeff, It will be closer to 45, though right now it is less than that and fixed; this is due to a staged rollout of the feature. The concurrent request limit for Backends is dynamic, and App Engine will continue to push requests to an instance as long as cpu usage is below the instance clas

Hey Timofey, what's your app_id and backend name? I'll take a look at the logs and see if I can verify this. Thanks, Justin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group. To post to this group, send email to google-appengine@googlegrou

Hey Mark, Backends support in dev_appserver is currently experimental, and while most things work, Task Queues are something that's fairly broken at the moment. When you run with --backends, the dev_appserver divides itself into multiple processes, and all tasks are currently run by Remote API

[google-appengine] Re: Channel API between front and backend instances

2011-07-28 Thread Justin Haugh
Not at the moment, but we're working on a fix for this, so that a channel created by a frontend can be used by a backend, and vice-versa. I can't provide an exact release date at this point, but it likely will be in one of the next few releases. Until then, the suggested method of handling thi

What's your application ID? Your should certainly see something in the logs. Also, you might want to double-check that you're using appcfg backends update (verify with appcfg backends list) and looking at the logs specifically for your backend (using the Version/Backend dropdown). Justin --

Hi Prashant, The current Backend prices (and free quota) will be unchanged in the new pricing scheme. I'll see if we can update that doc to make this clearer. Cheers, Justin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google App Engine" group. To view this
