How many requests can GAE Datastore handle simultaneously?

So I have 25,000 .py scripts running at the same time every 2 minutes as CRON jobs (distributed equally over 1000 servers)

They all have to access the same DB at the same time, ONLY to READ from db, not to write.

So I was wondering if Google Datastore (for example) could handle this? 25000 requests to the same DB at the same time just to read?

I couldnt find this in Google's docs.

Best Regards

Unlike traditional databases, which have separate distinct "instances", Google Datastore is a single huge data storage, which has no explicit per-application limit on the number of requests that it can process. Your requests go the same route as all requests from all the other apps that use the Datastore.

The only limit you might face is on the write side, where one entity group should not be updated more frequently than once per second.
