I've switched from app engine to heroku. Even if you can get past the vendor lock in, carefully review the limitations: file-size, collection size, etc. They may have good reasons for these, but I spent more time working/thinking around these than I expected. I
AppEngine is a great platform for getting an app off the ground, and for a POC... but beyond that I wouldn't recommend it. -Ben |

I know I would get to beta 1 or a prototype faster on app engine but I did not know the limitations you mention would cause such headaches. I thought we had more room.
What I like of app engine is the search service but I think it could become costly - there is no price right now but the api call limits seem rather low. And I see that you can do full text search in Postgres at no additional cost than the monthly database plan.
