Don't confuse it with GAE (Google App Engine) which is restricted environment.

Admittedly, the terminology is quite confusing at Google's end.

I haven't tried it, but from looking into it in the past:

• There's a preconfigured Postgresql VM at https://console.cloud.google.com/launcher/details/bitnami-launchpad/postgresql. This uses Google Compute Engine (GCE), which is just shared, hosted virtual machines.
  
• The App Engine Flexible Environment is built on Google Container Engine (GKE), which uses Docker images on Google's infrastructure. The Java runtime uses Jetty 9.3: https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/flexible/java/dev-jetty9.
  

This isn't the same as the original Google App Engine, which uses a very old version of Jetty and Java 7.
