Note that they'll also be reducing the free bandwidth and CPU-time quotas. Bandwidth goes to 1GB in/out per day and CPU to 6.5 hours / day

- rogercosseboom 18y agoCurrently users are allotted 46.30 CPU hours and 10GB of bandwidth Thats a hell of a downgrade.
- timf 18y agoAnd doubling the storage to 1GB
- DocSavage 18y agoYeah, I have mixed feelings about that. On one hand, I like free. If you are maxing out your free quota (which I'm not even close to), the CPU adjustment means what was free will cost you (46.30 - 6.5 cpu/hours) * $0.10 = $3.98/day or about $120/mo. The bandwidth adjustment drops 9GB/day at 0.10/GB in, 0.12/GB out -- that's $1.98/day or about $60/mo. There's also the issue of how much CPU burn a datastore write takes: http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_frm/thread/8d4185a7da1017f1# http://groups.google.com/group/google-appengine/browse_frm/t... On the other hand, I want a well-supported platform from Google and if reducing the free stuff means they have a good business model, can hire more engineers, etc, then that's a good thing.
- DenisM 18y agoTo be fair, at 300Gb/month of free stuff they would have killed most web hosting companies out there. That's a lot of data.

Most web hosting companies to not depend on extraordinarily price-conscious highly technical people for their bread and butter. Could you have gotten Wordpress working on Google without having an engineering degree? Could you have set up a simple brochureware site without an engineering degree? These are common customer requirements among the cheap, mass market web hosting companies.
