Blobstore service

[acellam guy]

Can i use the blobstore service for free even if for only two images coz am being told to enable billing in order to use it.

[Ed]

even if you enable the billing, those two images or say 100 images
might not cause you a cent.

I understand that I will not be billed for minimal blobstore usage. But enabling billing means enabling it for all, right? What if my app uses up any of other quota? I presume I will be billed for that. If my presumption is correct, then there is no way to use blobstore while totally avoiding being billed.

You currently get a free quota on all billing enabled apps.

Ah, I get it. Even with billling enabled, you get to set daily budget so you can actually still use AppEngine without billing incurred even if it's enabled. I never read about billing because I never wanted to billed so I didn't know.

I just went and tried to enable billing. It turns out they won't let me set $0.00 daily budget. Blimey! So my point stands: there is no way to use blobstore with 100% guarantee of never billed.

Hi Ahmad,

The easiest way to do this is to allocate a $1 budget to a quota you know you won't use. If you don't send emails, the email quota is an easy choice. If you do, since you're enabling blobstore, you could allocate it all to storage, since you seem to be confident you won't surpass the limit there.
