If this is a company project, a REST API or task service of some kind, then you are probably using Docker in the year 2021. If this is anything else, or if you work for a shop that hasn't embraced containerization, then you use PyInstaller (http://www.pyinstaller.org http://www.pyinstaller.org) to bundle your application. Either into a directory that contains your full Python virtual environment (only 5-10 megs!), or into a single executable file. The latter is most convenient for a Go/Rust type experience. But the former will startup faster, because that single-file executable has to first uncompress itself to the system temp directory.
