As I'm currently developing a site that allows users to upload photos
(which would typically be taken with a digital camera), I am sure to
hit that 1Mb limit on the images API calls. I would love to have the
possibility to resize those images directly in App Engine, however as
stated before in
I'm currently developing a website that will require users to upload a
few photos of their houses. There is a pretty good chance that those
photos will be taken with a digital camera, and thus bigger than 1Mb.
In order to save space, I would like to resize them to more web-
friendly dimensions,
Hi
I suppose you need to remember app engine is a horizontally scalable
application framework
and not a cpu intensive cluster. Whilst google's infrastructure might
seem massive
I imigine it is not infinately scalable. So limiting image sizes -
thus limiting the potential intensive
ness of
For a processing API call
like an image API call, there should be no dependence on BigTable or
any sort of clustering
It has been said that the image API is actually executed on an image
processing cluster, not the application servers.
Why don't you stick the images in Picasa and just manage them through
app engine ?
Thats what I am doing

Indeed the entire API is limited to 1MB, but the point of discussion
I'd like to make is that for data-related API calls like the datastore
and memcache, it's easy to come up with hardware/implementation
constraints that would warrant such a limit, and there are usually
relatively simple ways to
