In this world of Microservices, we want to build and ship things faster. When we ship our code, we want to make sure we ship well tested quality code. Hence, testing our code becomes very important. …

In one of my earlier tutorials, we have seen how we can optimize the performance of a FastAPI application using Async IO. To know more you can refer to Concurrency with FastAPI. Async IO is suitable when we want to perform small BackgroundTasks or to perform tasks using concurrency and…

In one of my earlier tutorials, we have seen how we can create a Python application using FastAPI. To know more you can refer to Building REST APIs using FastAPI. …

Apache Ignite is a memory-centric distributed database, caching, and processing platform for transactional, analytical, and streaming workloads delivering in-memory speeds at the petabyte scale. Ignite provides an in-memory data store where each node in an Ignite cluster by default stores data in RAM. The data is kept in off-heap storage…

FastAPI FastAPI is a modern, fast (high-performance), web framework that enables developers to build APIs with Python 3.6+ based on standard Python type hints. We are going to use a Python package called Pydantic, which enforces type hints at runtime. It provides user-friendly errors, allowing us to catch any invalid data. …

Each and every web application needs to make HTTP calls to the server to procure data to populate the dynamic parts of the application. The aim of this tutorial is to work with Flask extensions that help us create a production environment ready Python application and to integrate with Swagger…

In this tutorial, we will learn how to deploy Flask Microservice as a Serverless Function in OpenFaas. In one of my previous tutorials, we have already seen how to create a Flask microservice. We will use that microservice as a reference and deploy it on OpenFaas as a Function. What is Serverless? Serverless…

Python is an interpreted, high-level, and general-purpose programming language. It can be used to develop business applications as well as system scripts, has data science related capabilities, desktop GUIs, and also offers many choices for web and internet development.
