Frequently Asked Questions
FastAPI uses Starlette (ASGI) for async I/O, achieving performance close to Node.js and Go. It handles more concurrent requests than traditional WSGI frameworks. Server Compass deploys FastAPI with Uvicorn workers for maximum throughput.
Server Compass uses Gunicorn as process manager with Uvicorn workers (gunicorn -k uvicorn.workers.UvicornWorker). We configure optimal worker counts and handle graceful shutdown for production deployments.
FastAPI is faster with automatic OpenAPI docs and modern Python features. DRF has more built-in features and a larger ecosystem. Choose FastAPI for new APIs, DRF if you need Django admin or existing Django integration.
Use asyncpg for PostgreSQL or motor for MongoDB. SQLAlchemy 2.0+ supports async. Server Compass configures connection pooling and handles async session management with proper cleanup.
