Hello I'm facing a problem today with GAE SDK which it took a lot of time to update my app, before that it was fast to upload and took minute or less than that.
Even so, I went to Google Cloud Status Dashboard to check and verify if GAE service is outage and it wasn't outage.
This is my screenshot for my console, and this is Google Cloud Status Dashboard at the same time.
Any idea?
Thanks

I have a piece of code, based on NodeJs, that does not serve any HTTP request, but monitors some online systems and sends report emails.
This code is run by a shell script and keeps running 24x7.
Which Google Cloud offering is best suited to host this?
I tried with App Engine, but after one hour of console inactivity, the console exists and the script stops running.
I am not sure if Compute Engine would be best for this. I can host this in AWS EC2, it would work there... but wondering about Google.
Any tips appreciated.
Thanks
This can be done with a simple Python app running in App Engine Standard Platform. See this post for details.
If you're able to modify it so it can run periodically you could run it on AWS Lambda with a schedule as trigger and use SES to send out e-mails.
Alternatively, if you have control over the "online systems", you could use CloudWatch custom metrics and create alerts based on the thresholds of your metrics.
If you must use Google Cloud, you could use Google Cloud Functions instead of AWS Lambda, and Google Cloud Monitoring / Logging.
The second version of Google Cloud Functions can run for up to 60 minutes (thanks to Google Cloud Run).
To sum up on GCP:
Google Cloud Functions 1nd: 9 mins
Google Cloud Functions 2nd: 60 mins
Google Cloud Run: 60 mins
Google App Engine: 10 minutes (Automatic scaling) and 24 hours (Basic scaling)
Google Compute engine : infinite (you manage the VM)
I am a company admin and have a simple Java app (no backend, just several mostly static pages assembled through tiles) deployed since Google started the app engine. The site went down a couple of days ago. When I log in and go Admin/App Engine Apps page the app shows with the status "Always on". But it's not running and the message on top states "This feature will be moving to the Google Developers Console in Q2 2015. Follow these instructions to get the new permissions you'll need." Instructions are https://cloud.google.com/developers/articles/best-practices-for-configuring-permissions-on-gcp/#h.bgs0oxofvnoo.
But when I go to the dev console under my account - nothing is there. Called support (we are paying for some Google services) and they can't say anything except that now we need to sign up for Silver support at Google Cloud to talk to anybody there. But I am able to configure and deal with the app - I just can't find it anywhere! Any pointers will be hugely appreciated.
I started using Php runtime for hosting my wordpress blog on Google app engine.
I have a bit of confusions over the "Overview" chart that I am seeing.
According to "Running Wordpress guide", the cron job is getting triggered every 2 hours. But I haven't finished the migrations yet so I removed that scheduler to save money. Nobody knows my Google App engine URL.
As you can see "APIs" chart, there is no more requests.
But in "App engine" chart, "Cloud SQL" chart and "Read/Write operations" chart, you can still see some activities that happens regularly. Is there any scheduler or back-end job (except the 2 hours cron job that I disabled already) that makes those requests?
Google costs me around USD 1.* after setting up about four days ago.
What does the App Engine logs say?
I have a simple app at http://menkyo-kaiden.appspot.com/. It uses Extjs whose main library file ext-all.js is approximately 1 MB.
I've had the app up and running for 6 months no issues. Today it won't download the Extjs library or takes over a minute to download. I logged into App Engine admin and see no issues only Elevated status for Google Datastore which I'm not using. App Engine admin shows my latency to be under 100ms which obviously isn't the case.
So is there an issue with App Engine today or something has been changed on Google's end?
Well the problem has disappeared. Perhaps an issue with my ISP throttling bandwidth.
I have deployed an app on Google App Engine and it's working fine. All the data is getting displayed in DataSotre Viewer but DataStore Statistics Page is continuously showing No Statistics Found. It's already more than 2 days since I deployed my app so it rules out the possibility of that Statistics will be generated after 1 day of deploying your app.
It takes GAE 1-2 days before generating reports. So have patience.
