hi there,

I just started with the App Engine.

I created the app.yaml file with the specifications about scaling.

But now I'm trying to create a Load Balancer and I'm not able to do it.

Every time I try to search about it, it's telling about "Instances Groups" but for my App, I cannot create those groups.. there are only available for Compute Engine instances.

Is it correct that App Engine makes itself already a Load Balancing, or what I'm doing wrong?

cheers

Hello, 

Thank you for using Google Groups!

Based on what you have described about your inability to create groups, I would assume you are using our Google App Engine standard environment. If so, I would like to tell you standard has load balancing built into it. Due to this, GAE standard can spin instances up and down based on traffic demands. You may find further details of this here

As far as Google App Engine flexible environment goes, the Cloud Load Balancing is a hidden resource within the Google Cloud Platform. However, each individual instance can be viewed and controlled in the Cloud Platform instances page. You may further details about this in our flex documentation here.  

I hope this helps
