- smoody 18y agoI don't think it has liquid database scaling the way App Engine does. If you have to even spend a second thinking about sharding, partitioning, replication lag, etc. then you're not getting the same functionality.
- simonw 18y agoMy experience with App Engine is that you have to think pretty hard about sharding and partitioning - the hierarchy part of the App Engine data store controls which bits of your data live in the same place, and hence what can be modified in a single transaction.
