TBH, I didn't think I'd ever use Microsoft stuff again after moving to a macbook for developing and deploying on Linux. However, the underwhelming macbook hardware of late drove me to purchase a surface book, which I now love. Then, developed a fairly complex python web app that requires anaconda and a GPU based server. One thing led to another, and this week I deployed a python flask/gevent server web app on windows server 2016 using IIS as a reverse proxy. It turns out IIS and windows server is actually great to work with. I'm quite pleased with it all and not a big deal to license a copy of windows server, it is a pleasure to work with. In the future, looking forward to making my next web app with Visual Studio, C# language and .net core framework.
