Datastore Small Operations

[Sargis Dallakyan]

Greetings,

Does anyone know what Datastore Small Operations means and where I can
find more info about it. I'm currently getting over the quota on this
after Nov 7 update: 100% - 0.05 of 0.05 Million Ops.

I've searched the web and documentations, but can't find anything
about this in the release notes or in the documentations.

Thanks,
Sargis

Hi Sargis,

Please see:
http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/quotas.html#Resources

Key allocations and keys-only queries consume small operations.

Let me know if I can do anything else to help.

Cheers,
Brian

This is best explained here:
http://code.google.com/appengine/kb/postpreviewpricing.html#operations_charged_for
Small operations are neither reads nor writes, but are key allocations, returning keys from a query, or counts.
Your "Billing History" usage reports can tell you if you are using a substantial number of these operations now.

Thank you Brian and Stacy. I can now see from the error log
that .count() method was consuming all my quota. I'll now need to use
len or some other method of counting to avoid going over the quota.

Thanks,
Sargis

Hi James,

In the future could you address your questions to the group rather than me personally? There may be other people interested in this information.

Some examples of various operation sizes are here:

Is get_by_key_name( aKey ) a small datastore operation ?

No. 

If not, what is?

Allocating a key or returning a key as a query result.

Cheers,

Brian
