    App Engine is such a good resource for our team both internally and externally. You have complete control over your app, how it runs, when it runs, and more while Google handles the back-end, scaling, orchestration, and so on. If you are serving a tool, system, or web page, it's perfect. If you are serving something back-end, like an automation or ETL workflow, you should be a little considerate or careful with how you are structuring that job. For instance, the Standard environment in Google App Engine will present you with a resource limit for your server calls. If your operations are known to take longer than, say, 10 minutes or so, you may be better off moving to the Flexible environment (which may be a little more expensive but certainly a little more powerful and a little less limited) or even moving that workflow to something like Google Compute Engine or another managed service.

    Great tool for client management, sales tracking, cases studies. Using is as the source of truth for all client communication. Allowing more integration options for cc and ACH payments. Right now the options are limited and only integrate with strict processing capabilities that are not always in the businesses best interest.

    Pros
    Google
    • Quick to develop, quick to deploy. You can be up and running on Google App Engine in no time.
    • Flexible. We use Java for some services and Node.js for others.
    • Great security features. We have been consistently impressed with the security and authentication features of Google App Engine.

    • Allows use to bring external data into Salesforce as zero-copy
    • Is able to present data using standard Salesforce reports familiar to our users
    • Allows us to establish multiple relationships between our CRM data and the external data to contextualize the imported data.

    Cons
    Google
    • There is a slight learning curve to getting used to code on Google App Engine.
    • Google Cloud Datastore is Google's NoSQL database in the cloud that your applications can use. NoSQL databases, by design, cannot give handle complex queries on the data. This means that sometimes you need to think carefully about your data structures - so that you can get the results you need in your code.
    • Setting up billing is a little annoying. It does not seem to save billing information to your account so you can re-use the same information across different Cloud projects. Each project requires you to re-enter all your billing information (if required)

    • pricing or costing visibilty, we can't estimate what would be consumption this month and suddenly we get surprised
    • CI/CD can be improved, that looks a difficult and hard
    • Also sandbox comes with many limitation so very hard to replicate production like environment to test

    App Engine is a solid choice for deployments to Google Cloud Platform that do not want to move entirely to a Kubernetes-based container architecture using a different Google product. For rapid prototyping of new applications and fairly straightforward web application deployments, we'll continue to leverage the capabilities that App Engine affords us.

    Usability

    I had to revisit the UI after a year of just setting up and forgetting. The UI got some improvements but the amount of navigation we have to go through to setup a new app has increased but also got easier to setup. Gemini now is integrated and make getting answers faster

    Most of the daily use features, are very usr friendly, intuitive, every end user can learn how to manage and operate basic activities such as enter information, send an email, send a campaign, create an email marketing template, run a report on the renewals for the month, open and close a support case, create new account or a new contact, etc

    Good amount of documentation available for Google App Engine and in general there is large developer community around Google App Engine and other products it interacts with. Lastly, Google support is great in general. No issues so far with them.

    We were on another much smaller cloud provider and decided to make the switch for several reasons - stability, breadth of services, and security. In reviewing options, GCP provided the best mixtures of meeting our needs while also balancing the overall cost of the service as compared to the other major players in Azure and AWS.

    we have evaluated Snowflake, adobe rt-cdp as well. They also offer a very strong capabilities but the Data 360 is more suitable for us because of the same Salesforce ecosystem. The main key factor is without any custom code we were able to include it into our automations. And ofcourse with agentforce already in plans, we had to pick Data 360

    Return on Investment
    Google
    • Effective employee adoption through ease of use.
    • Effective integration to other java based frameworks.
    • Time to market is very quick. Build, test, deploy and use.
    • The GAE Whitelist for java is an important resource to know what works and what does not. So use it. It would also be nice for Google to expand on items that are allowed on GAE platform.

    • Salesforce Data Cloud has a positive impact on me as a realtor because it is easy to generate reports on customer data and see what is needed to be bumped to the next level. We have to earn a certain commission by the end of the year and it makes it easy to see how close you are
    • It has a positive impact on keeping track of customers because it is nice to have it all in one place which is a nice time saver
    • I like that you can even see customer info from other agents making it nice to compare and try and pass others
    • Makes the customers journey smooth sailing because everything is in one place
