I think the short answer is "no", but check out appscale. They are working on doing exactly that. Though much of the stuff behind GAE is proprietary-- like BigTable-- so these components have to be replaced. Gives some portability but not much.
The idea here is to sorta build my ideal app engine using off the shelf components as much as possible.
- patrickgzill 16y agoIt seems the setup I was looking at earlier is essentially a VM with the Python and Java SDK's preinstalled and running, which is not the same thing, as you point out. If you are going to have to do so much re-coding, though, wouldn't it make sense to start with Appscale and just add in couchdb or whatever else you like, to get the data storage you want? After all, you are already familiar with the rest of the way GAE works.
- lzw 16y agoI'll look at appscale again. I'm more fond of the way CouchApp/CouchDB works than the way GAE works, though, so I'm going to try and do this with very little coding. I really think that I'll only have to write a couple hundred lines of code to bring this stack together, but I may be missing something.
