I am researching how I could build an app on appengine/compute. Basically, it would be something similar to parse.com. Except it would have a few different features and would be targeted for a specific kind of app. Which I am building now.
Basically, i would have a web app on appengine, where you can create an app backend. Creating a new backend will create a new DB table or something similar (potentially nosql), so each app will have its own database to connect to. And in this app configuration, i could control various settings and behaviors about how it returns data. What I do not see, is that I personally see these as seperate 'apps'. Although, they are running on a single platform on appengine/compute. How/what do I do when one single user app needs to scale out, but the others do not? Should that one app be provisioned its own appengine instance? Which seems expensive. Or would it just be in my own system and my own whole backend just need to scale? Some services that do this are parse.com, built.io, and gamesparks (although targeting gaming). Parse is built on AWS, the others, i am not sure. I just dont know how I can go about accomplishing this. I am not asking how to write the main app really, that I can see how to do. But when a new user app is created, it should create their own DB and their own 'bucket', essentially for their app to live in. I was hoping someone more familiar with how I could build something like that could give me some insight. If there is a better way, I am all ears. This will primarily be built in python. I would also like to eventually use the new pubsub system that is in preview that they showed off at google IO the other day.
