This is awesome, it's one more burden off the AppEngine team's shoulders. When I talked to them 6months ago, they pointed at 'AppDrop' as their answer to this, and I could see the disingenuity in their eyes. Some dude spent a couple hours doing that, and probably spent more time writing the blog post than working on it.
Now they have a substantial option. I was surprised to see HyperTable support -- it's a solid piece of work, and plays to my biases a lot better than HBase.
