What options exist for Python Cloud Hosting other than Google App Engine?

I'm looking for solutions that let me write and publish code to servers that will scale up automatically to meet demand. I don't want to spend my time on IT tasks.

Google App Engine is a unique cloud platform and you won't find any other similar hosting. Except maybe hosting your own AppScale platform somewhere : http://code.google.com/p/appscale/ But I don't think it's ready yet.

The closest to GAE would likely be some sort of Heroku-clone for Python. I know of two upcoming services :

You could also try Media Temple Grid Service which has Django grid containers : http://mediatemple.net/webhosting/gs/features/containers.php#django
