i think in general what we should take from this article is one user's experience with gae and use it as just another data point. many comments on here seem to suggest that they're upset about the bashing, but this is just feedback, a grain of salt, i find it helpful, although noted that you could probably find most of these in the documentation.
i originally also considered gae for my project, but decided against it, my impetus was that i wanted to use a homegrown best of breed stack: tornado, mysql, nginx, memcached, python2.7 and have more control over the environment.
