My billing went from $0.14/day to $3-$4/day (i can't afford $4/day... $1/day is my maximum right now).
I set the "Set Max Idle instances" to 1 since I don't really need more than that most of the time, the 5-8 instances that I had were idle almost all day serving few requests.
My costs are down to $0.39/day. 3x increase is more than ok with me, the old prices were to cheap anyway.
New pricing model is ok, but terrible job of explaining the new situation. Seeing from 0.14 to 3-4, is annoying. And having to wait 3 days to see if I could lower it down was even more annoying.
Now that this is settled... Back to developing my appengine app. Looking foreword to python2.7 and datastore search :)
This is great news. The last week has been very frustrating for many people, and I think this will go along way to helping repair some of the lost good will. This shows that you are listening to us and responding to our feedback. Keep up the good work, and together we can all build the community and end up on the other side of this billing change with a strong App Engine community
Very many thanks for increasing free instance hours! My apps are non-profits mostly and as I try to explore different idea, it's a great news for me. Thank you!
One of my apps billing goes from $0.01 to 0. The larger I can fine-tune with respect to instance hours by profiling and optimize datastore where I think I can use one app for 2008, one for 2009 etc. The price change makes blobstore cheaper since it introduces different pricing for datastore and blobstore. So one of my apps is actually lowering its cost. So my small app actually increased its cost-effectiveness for having just between 1 and 5 GB blobstore data and if an application is succesful there are ways to monetize.
I have created and managed 5 applications. And in some apps we have used only 4 - 6% of CPU per day and this is free quota. In other projects I have billed up to 5$ per day.
Now with new pricing my clients see that we need to pay 10-25$ per day for instances. This is not normal price for us. We can move our apps to Amazon EC3 with 30$ per instance per month and work with Django more comfortable, and these resources to be enough for this 5 websites.
Please, recalculate your prises. I am worked 18 monthes with GAE and I planned relocate projects to Amazon if this situation not improved.

ReplyDeleteI would like to say thanks App Engine team to listen to your user; the 28 instance hours increase is a gooood news.

Python 2.7 will include support for concurrent requests.
ReplyDeleteDoes Java already have this?
