This is really exciting. It'll be easier than ever to create scalable web apps. Choosing python seems sensible, I don't see what the fuss is about.

- utnick 19y agowell one fuss i see is that there will be no red5 on google web services it seems... not a big deal to most people... but from what ive read this seems more like a competitor to heroku/appjet than ec2/s3 as others have mentioned but as a django user, i am pleased
- jsjenkins168 19y agoIt is perfectly sensible if you are starting a project from scratch or have already built something purely in Python. For everyone else looking to host something already written in another language, it is a problem. I'm sure Amazon doesn't mind though, they'll just continue to get all of this business.
- dhotson 19y agoGood point. For existing codebases it means porting code, which could be a pain. I did just read that Python is just the first step, other languages will be supported soon. :)
