Just came across this announcement that GAE standard env now supports Java 8, has removed the security manager, and supports the entire standard public Java library (which should mean core.async will work). https://cloudplatform.googleblog.com/2017/06/Google-App-Engine-standard-now-supports-Java-8.html
Oh wow. I may move my service there now!
yeah, looks like a pretty big deal. I'm upgrading my examples now to test it out...
Awesome. Would love some feedback on how it goes.
Will definitely move our one service there. Would significantly reduce costs as it just runs cron jobs
