Could somebody give me a high-level technical overview of WSGI details behind the scenes vs other we
- by orokusaki
Firstly:
I understand what WSGI is and how to use it
I understand what "other" methods (Apache mod-python, fcgi, et al) are, and how to use them
I understand their practical differences
What I don't understand is how each of the various "other" methods work compared to something like UWSGI, behind the scenes. Does your server (Nginx, etc) route the request to your WSGI application and UWSGI creates a new Python interpreter for each request routed to it? How much different is is from the other more traditional / monkey patched methods is WSGI (aside from the different, easier Python interface that WSGI offers)? What light bulb moment am I missing?
