Hi,
My aim is to build a setup for my domain where the web interface is not just a simple http but is an application that requires installing python and a lot of python modules and also to install and configure a lot of system services.

Then when the users connect to my domain web page, they must be able to login to my underlying application and do a lot of actions which would read/write a cloudsql database and will store the files the users supply to an online storage (might be google drive - I don't know if this is the best).

I don't know where to start and I'm a little bit confused between the various Google cloud applications and products... usually a web host will not allow me to configure and alter the system itself, and if this is a cloud virtual machine, then I don't know if this can work as a server where my website is hosted and where it can be accessed publicly with efficient http availability!

So, where to start, and which GC Products do you suggest for me to build such setup?

Thanks

Patrick Flynn

Perhaps try-out app engine python standard?  It sounds like it may fit your use-case.
