i am building a cross platform (ios, android) messaging app and was going to use google cloud messaging through google app engine to handle the messages, however i wanted to implement the CCS(XMPP) protocol of GCM rather than the HTTP, however i have heard that GAE does not support GCM CCS, is this still the case with GCM 3.0, or should i look at implementing it on google compute engine instead?

Thanks for the help

According to https://developers.google.com/cloud-messaging/server#role , and I quote,

  • Note that Google AppEngine does not support connections to XMPP (CCS).

I currently see no documentation there indicating any difference for 3.0.

Thus, it does appear that GCE is the right platform for this purpose.
