Automatic Scaling:
App Engine offers built-in auto-scaling so that your apps
can instantly scale automatically based on need, from zero to millions of
users.

Scalability:
Use the same infrastructure Google uses. Google can handle
heavy loads (1M QPS load balancing without pre-warming).
Pricing & sub-hour billing, sub-minute billing Amazon EC2 charges the
usage of instances by hour. Even partial hours are rounded of to an hour. GCE
machine types are charged a minimum of 10 minutes. After 10 minutes,
instances are charged in 1-minute increments, rounded up to the nearest
minute. Initial comparison indicates that GCEs compute and storage costs are
cheaper than Amazon EC2.

Better network throughput GCE Network I/O across regions is much faster
than AWS. Though Google doesnt officially acknowledge it, it is clear that they
leverage their global network which is the backbone of Googles infrastructure.
In contrast, AWS uses public Internet for communicating between the regions.
This capability of GCE makes it possible to set-up interesting scenarios
including synchronous database replication between regions.
Live migration Every cloud provider has to perform maintenance to its host
servers and datacenters. This may result in scheduled downtime for the cloud
provider forcing customers to reboot their VM to complete the process.
Amazon EC2 Maintenance Help Page documents this process. This article,
Widespread Amazon EC2 Cloud Instance Reboots Spark Questions, Concerns
highlights the issue of forced EC2 instance reboots. GCE handles this through a
graceful live migration of VMs from one host to another making it transparent
to the customers. Refer to
Regions & Zones Google Compute Engine Google

section of GCEs documentation for more details.
