I would recommend GAE. It is a pretty good fit for what you are describing, and best of all, it has a very reasonable free tier that never expires. I have only ever used python on GAE. PHP at the moment only accepts whitelisted applications. Their database is NoSQL, but it does have a query language called GQL which shares some features and syntax of SQL.https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastore/ https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/datastor... GAE has cron jobs which can run for up to 10 minutes. https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/cron https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/config/c... Applications are limited to 1GB of source files. It seems like this will be no problem for you. You are limited to 1GB of data/day for free, $0.12/GB after. For you application, that's 100,000 requests/day. It looks like Heroku wants to charge if you want more than 10,000 database entries. Your English is great.
