You can specify that a new application should reside in the European Union, rather than the United States. This is especially useful if your application's users are closer to Europe than to the United States. There is less network latency and the End User Content will be stored at rest in the European Union.
Limitations
- Python 2.5 support is deprecated, and is not available for the European Union location. Python 2.7, and all other App Engine languages, can be used.
- Managed VMs are not currently available for projects located in the European Union.
Setup
You must specify this location when you register the application; you cannot change it later. Click Show Advanced Options on the Create Project screen to select a location option, either United States or European Union.
