#42Earlier quoted context omitted.
GAE works really well for massive scaling without needing to worry about infrastructure, though it has some pretty weird limitations at times. For everything that GAE can't do, we have a GCE instance running to handle it.
One thing I like about GAE is that it encourages good practices. Many people cut their high-scalability teeth on it.
Right, but when you rely on other services that that haven't cut their teeth yet, it becomes a problem.
For example, if you're pulling 50 MB from an API that doesn't allow multi-part downloads, you can't do it with GAE because they have a 32 MB limit per connection.

#43My prototype is deployed on AWS. Would I be ruled out?
Also, having not use their stack, how hard would it be for me to move over to their stack which, I'm guessing, would be a requirement.
