Great!! The first set of questions ... some are maybe too private, you see ...
API for iOS ### does it mean that you dont use views, just endering data to JSON, and data representation is done in iOS app? 30-40 request per second average sustained 24 hours a day. ### have you tried how high (in meaning of req/sec) you can get on GAE? Do you have some peaks that are still served well? we use google app engine. ### how do you evaluate entire dev process using web2py? Do you have some procedure for deployment like develop localy using sqlite, then deploying to some GAE demo account, then to production ?? ### whats your long time experience with GAE in meaning of stability, speed etc. ? ### how much data do you store in GAE datastore, is it fast enough? Thanks!
