I'd recommend amazon's ec2, if you're worried about a lot of setup you can look at bitnami's ec2 images, they have one for openerp.Just click and it's up.

http://bitnami.com/stack/openerp/cloud

or search for customised openerp ec2 machine images.

Thanks guys;
@Martin, it then turns out that the database engine on App Engine is the challenge here.
@Francis, Google Cloud sounds like really good news the only problem is that OpenERP uses PostgreSQL; I'm not sure there's PostgreSQL version of the Google Cloud.

Will find out more about Webfaction; exploring Amazon might be interesting too though time seems to be a constraint.

Thank you Francis. gCloud SQL is news to me.

I was basing my statements on this video by (now) DropBox's Guido Van Rossum on Python / django and the GAE < http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v1gTI4BOPUw >

CHEERS!

@Martin,

Google now have Google Cloud SQl which is mysql hosted in the cloud. It works great with app-engine. If the OpenERP uses Mysql as the db, it is easy using Google Cloud SQl other than Big Table datastore.

Also, Google Apps engine is great. The only thing you need to do is modify your applications to work with a NoSQL engine (Google's BigTable, an extension to MySQL's relational db engine).

So the Python app's db model will speak a dialect of your ORM language with a slightly different accent. The differences are really minimal.  You will also have to do some monkey patching of your views and URL mapping code.

@Samwel, Webfaction is ideal for your Python hosting needs. Their support is *world class*

You can also try Amazon's elastic computing cluster if you do not mind doing everything with your bare hands.

Thanks Pauline. OpenERP seems quite ideal.
What Python hosting options are there? Anybody tried out Google App Engine? Would want to know the experience.

Hi guys,

Someone needs to customize an inventory management system. What best can one recommend especially in terms of ease and flexibility in customization, integration with other systems (like accounting software) and open source.
