I would like to perform a small operation on all entities of a specific kind and rewrite them to the datastore. I currently have 20,000 entities of this kind but would like a solution that would scale to any amount.
What are my options?

Use a mapper – this is part of the MapReduce framework, but you only want the first component, map, as you don’t need the shuffle/reduce step if you’re simply mutating datastore entities.
