Hi,

I want to know what are the policies to make backup to data?

Can I do it or it is done by Apps Engine administrator?

How Apps Engine deal with data integrity and reliability?...I mean, if
infraestructure crash, How is recovery the data?

Thanks.

You can probably trust Google's infrastructure to not lose your data;
however, it's a good idea to make backups in case software problems in
your own code cause data loss.

Thank you for you response but it doesn't clear yet. If I use Google's Apps Engine service, what kind of guarantee Google offer me about my data?

Exist some certified or something like that?
 
Thanks

Hi Carlos,

The short story is: We won't lose your data - we have a robust backup and recovery strategy - but we're not responsible for you losing your own data, so we suggest you keep your own backups so you can recover from bugs or mistakes in your code.

Hello,

Do we have any chance to get an integrated backup/restore tool in
Google App Engine any time soon ?

Is there a gaebar equivalent on java side ?

Thanx for your help.

You can use the bulkloader's --dump and --restore functionality for this. It will work fine in Java, as long as you set up a Python version containing the remote_api handler.
