title: Can Pandas run on Google App Engine for Python?
body: <p>Can the <a href="http://pandas.pydata.org/" rel="noreferrer">pandas</a> data analysis module run on Google App Engine?</p>
  
  <p>My first inclination is no: the web page states "critical code paths <strong>compiled to C</strong>". So since this is not a purely python package, you cannot simply copy a directory or ZIP file into your app engine project.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible to "disable" the C extensions and have the module run in pure python (albeit slower)?</p>
