For storing data, Google Datastore (accessed via web2py DAL) is used except for storing large resources where Google Cloud Storage is used. I have done multiple web2py version upgrades on the production environment in the last 5 years without any major issues.
Google app engine has also been mostly friction-free over the years.
But neither Web2py nor Google app engine has been adopted widely as I had thought 5-6 years ago. If I'm starting a new project, I'm unlikely to go with web2py or app engine as the number of developers who will be excited to work on these technologies is limited.
Well, I am using Web2Py professionally, with PostgreSQL, and on linux. I am working on my Social network named "Ourway". You may like some features of it like "Blog" part.
I am using web2py for 2 years, this web frameworks is great and unique. Easy to use, accept a lot of DB's but the best DB supported is postgres.
I have created 2 projects with web2py and a really like how easy it is. 1 project is a financial management and other a mail tracker, both in production systems (4 linux lpar with postgres) running fine.
web2py is a good choice

We are using it with our website that teachers Chinese, www.dominochinese.com. Our host is pythonanywhere.com and we love the simplicity of it. I work on building stuff instead of wishing I could get stuff working. I worked with django for 1.5 years and I hated it. In a sense I feel web2py is the PHP but in python. It makes people quickly do stuff without going into object oriented programming, which can be really confusing for beginners to intermediate programmers.
I use Web2py with Google App Engine in production. See https://www.nittiolearn.com.

I vote for Web2py. I only have time to develop small but useful stuff for my own use.
Hopefully next month I will have an oppty to create an app that is perfect for Web2py and run on Google app engine.
Web2py = breath of fresh air!

I like it because it is so tiny that I can easily distribute with my application.
