title: Google AppEngine Default container, Deployments
body: <p>I'm trying to learn Google App Engine, though they're making it very difficult.</p>
  
  <p>When I deploy an application through windows console or through Eclipse's GAE plugin, it works fine, but what am I deploying the application to? What web server/container is being used? Should I be able to see the deployed files in my google dev console?</p>
  
  <p>Also, when I use the "click-to-deploy" feature to deploy an instance of tomcat, it sets it to a new URL as an "external" ip address. Why is this not being set to my project's appspot URL? Is this an entirely different server created in addition to the default one that is created automatically? </p>
  
  <p>Searching for GAE info on the web just returns millions of pages about their offerings, but nothing to explain the behind the scenes stuff.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
