Re: application deployment question about nginx and pylons

[Terry Schmitt]

Krishnakant,
I can't speak to the best method with Pylons, as I'm just learning
Python and Pylons, but to me, the main benefit of using Nginx and
reverse proxy is:
1. You can load balance between several instances of your pylons app.
2. Nginx can serve all your static content for you, which reduces the
load on the app server.

Thanks,
Terry

Thanks, but what bennifit will we get by reverce proxy with nginx?
Isn't there a way like apache uses mod_python?
Happy hacking.

cd34,

Thanks for that link about mod_wsgi. Very informative.
Like Weixi Yen, my preference is the simplicity of using reverse proxy
with Nginx. I've used this in the past for Java based apps. It's fast,
easy to configure and I will probably use that as my first choice as I
venture into the Python world.

 I had problems using using 0.9.5.rc1, but, 0.9.4.4 worked fine.

 I would not recommend nginx's mod_wsgi as it has problems with
 blocking 
 applications:http://blog.dscpl.com.au/2009/05/blocking-requests-and-nginx-version-...
 This is NOT Graham Dumpleton's apache mod_wsgi, it just shares the
 name and they appear to have used some of the handler code.

 You could also use phusion passenger:http://www.modrails.com/install.html
 which queues requests to avoid the blocking experienced with nginx's
 mod_wsgi.
