Thanks for the feedback. I would encourage you to note that those blog posts are from 2010 and 2009, and my understanding is the platform has improved dramatically in the ensuing 4-5 years. I'm a Linux systems engineer, but for an app where I'm not going to admin my own infrastructure, I have been happier with App Engine than other PaaS options.

No competent Linux admin would use a PaaS. I find it very hard to believe that you'd rather use GAE instead of a virtual dedicated.
