For free?
GAE doesn't charge for their object store nor their CDN service?
- skybrian 10y agoThere is a free tier. It looks like it's free up to 1GB per day [1]. On my home account I've only used it for demo projects that are scarcely used, but it's fine for that. [1] https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas
- niftich 10y agoDoes it 'stop' if you reach the quota or do you get a bill?
- skybrian 10y agoI don't have any personal experience, but as I understand it, that depends on whether you enabled billing.
- notyourwork 10y agoDon't you have to provide a CC to sign up for even the free tier? (That's how it was when I was trying it out a couple of years back.) It was really cute too, Google would send me a $0.00 invoice each month.
- skybrian 10y agoI don't remember. I've been using it since the beginning and I don't get a bill. I don't know how up to date this page is, but here's how it used to work: https://sites.google.com/site/gdevelopercodelabs/app-engine/creating-your-app-engine-account https://sites.google.com/site/gdevelopercodelabs/app-engine/...
- thesandlord 10y agoIf you don't put in your credit card info, it stops. Otherwise you get a bill.
- dragonwriter 10y agoIIRC, the CDN isn't charged separately, and the object store is available (within a certain quota) within the GAE free tier, so, within certain limits, yes, "for free".
