App Engine offers you a choice between two Go language environments. Both
environments have the same code-centric developer workflow, scale quickly and
efficiently to handle increasing demand, and enable you to use Google’s proven
serving technology to build your web, mobile and IoT applications quickly and
with minimal operational overhead. While the two environments have a lot in
common, they differ in a few important ways.
Choose your preferred environment
Standard environment
Optimized to scale nearly instantaneously to handle huge traffic spikes
Application can scale to 0 instances when there is no traffic. Most
cost-effective for applications that have significant periods where they are
not serving traffic
You can run an App Engine application in two environments, the
standard environment and the flexible environment. See a summary
of differences between the two environments.
