Comparing Blobstore and Google Cloud Storage

2019-02-13 16:07发布

For a GAE application, what are the tradeoffs between using the Blobstore and GCS?

  • as of Aug 2015, the price of blobstore and GCS are the same ($0.312 per GB year)
  • GCS has a nicer code interface (data referenced by things that look like file paths)
  • GCS has console commands and a web UI for uploading/accessing data

Are there some kind of advantages to Blobstore that I'm missing?

Right now with my startup we are using the Blobstore service and we are planning to move to GCS. The only "drawback" I see is that you will not be able anymore to resize and crop images directly from the path (Transforming_Images_from_the_Blobstore) .

In order to not brake all the client-side code we are thinking about an internal servlet that resize on-the-fly with a CDN in front of that in order to cache the most recent jobs.
