Re: Is it possible to use Cloud SQL for free.

[Razvan Musaloiu-E.]

Currently, there is no way to use Cloud SQL for free. That being said, the per-use plan [1] should keep the costs very low for low usage.

I'd like to enter the #gcdc2013 competition. I've developed a php framework and an application built on it that I'd like to submit.
The application uses database and it works great on my localhost env.

I thought app engine is free and it comes with a free database but now I find out that I need to use Cloud SQL and that

it requires a billing enabled which requires a credit card information which I unfortunately do not have.

Is there any other way to use database in app engine with php for free without enabling the billing info?

So there is no other way to have any kind of database enabled in app engine with php!? 
Asking this because somehow it is  possible to use database driven apps when developing in python on app engine!?

Usually people who own a credit card could be considered "those who are in the money", which I'm not. Any other solutions to enable billing and execute payments!?

"Making the world a better place" while limiting  access to those less fortunate!? It's kind a  weird, isn't it!?

Hello Alan,

I faced the same problem. I submitted my app but it isn't working. I tried connecting to a MySQL Database on another server remotely. It works offline and it is broken online. I'm still struggling to get a credit card to get it working.
