I'm working on an application to run on Google app engine. Normally, I would have to enable billing/pay if am using Google Cloud SQL. So for a start, I decided to connect remotely to a mysql database on another server. It works perfectly offline but after deploying my app it didn't work. Clearly, GAE doesn't support remote connections ... Is there another way to go around this ? tunneling ?
NB: Using an HTTP API to return info from my database ... would require more programing efforts.
