google-app-engine
I used google-appengine without preparing much backup plans before, but it looks like not a good idea anymore....
Since google app engine is quite hard to find a backup replacement, I plan to just add a "server error" page which will show while server fault.
Currently I am thinking to:
- Use the cdn cloudfare in front of google app engine. It will also handle the NAME server for me.
 - Prepare some static version of webpages (such as "Oops! the server fault") in another hosting platform
 
While google app engine failed, I will switch the destination from google app engine to the static page by change the CNAME records on cloudfare.
Is there any other recommand way to solve this situation?
