I'm now leading engineering at a startup with an established Python &
Flask infrastructure, and happen to urgently need an additional dynamic
Web&database service backend that's separate from the rest of our
infrastructure... While I could do it in Flask, I was thinking that
this might also be an opportunity for a Scheme (Racket) pilot project
for the company,[1] looking ahead to tech stack selection for some much
larger infrastructure expected next year (if the startup survives the
virus).
The problem with this as a pilot project is that this server will see
only very light duty, and therefore not good for evaluating real world
viability for the expected future high-traffic needs.
So I was wondering whether anyone (other than HN, and the bespoke
framework stuff I worked on atop the `scgi` package) is currently using
Racket for dynamic HTTP/S backend in a *high traffic* setup? And if you
are handling high traffic, what kinds of performance are you seeing
(e.g., request volume, simultaneous requests, latency, GC
characteristics), and how have you built it (e.g., which HTTP libraries,
what kind of server infrastructure)?
[1] A similar urgent new server in Racket has happened before.
