I have been developing for the web since 2002, but I have only been doing Python for the last few years, the "mod_python is dead" phase. In fact with the first site that I launched in python, I was starting to setup a beta environment with mod_python when my boss told me not to use it. Looking forward to reading up on the new release.
- mjolk 13y agoWhy not just use the webserver as a proxy to gunicorn or uwsgi?
- gtrubetskoy 13y agoAre you suggesting that a webserver is best used as a proxy, or that gunicorn and uwsgi are not webservers?
- axaxs 13y agoI don't think he was suggesting either. In the suggested setup, the webserver can still be used as a webserver, giving you the power of years of development into security, modules, etc, while proxying through certain requests requiring custom application work - which passes to your local webserver. Neither is what I'd consider the primary role of the application, though.
- mayhew 13y agoI'm not sure about uWSGI, but Gunicorn's default worker was designed to be behind a proxy that buffers slow clients.
