Greetings,
I work in Product Management on App Engine, and I'd like to assure you that we're continuing to invest in the product. We already support Java 8 in beta on Managed VMs (https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/managed-vms/ https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/managed-vms/), and the same is true for Python 3. Once Managed VMs goes GA, we expect that most of our customers will find that it provides all the benefits of App Engine with increased flexibility around the programming language, native code, etc.
Thanks,
- Navneet
- latchkey 11y agoThanks Navneet! I'm in the process of building my second business on top of App Engine. The autoscaling, datastore and lack of devops are killer features. I'm looking forward to migrating to managed vm's when they are closer to GA. Right now, they are just too alpha quality for me. Keep up the good work.
- lern_too_spel 11y agoWhat about free tier users? Are you going to send them packing and cause another Reader-esque outcry among developers? There is currently no free tier for Managed VMs. As much as you may hate supporting them, they will cause a PR headache if you stop.
