<h1>WSGI Servers</h1>

<p>A <a class="reference external" href="http://wsgi.readthedocs.org/en/latest/">Web Server Gateway Interface</a>

(WSGI) server implements the web server side of the WSGI interface for

running Python web applications. The WSGI standard v1.0 is specified in

<a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0333/">PEP 0333</a>. As of September 2010,

WSGI v1.0 is superseded by

<a class="reference external" href="http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-3333/">PEP 3333</a>, which defines the

v1.0.1 WSGI standard.</p>

<img alt="WSGI Server <-> Web server <-> Browser" class="technical-diagram" src="theme/img/web-browser-server-wsgi.png" style="width: 100%;" />

<p>Requests from the browser that are not for static assets (this is specified

in the web server's configuration which requests are for static assets and

which are not) are passed to the WSGI server. Once the request is

processed and generated by the WSGI server, the response is passed

back through the web server and onto the browser.</p>

<h2>WSGI Resources</h2>

<p><a class="reference external" href="http://gunicorn.org/">Green Unicorn</a>,

<a class="reference external" href="http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/">mod_wsgi</a>,

<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/unbit/uwsgi-docs">uWSGI</a>, and

<a class="reference external" href="http://www.gevent.org/">gevent</a> are common WSGI server implementations.</p>

<p>This <a class="reference external" href="http://agiliq.com/blog/2013/07/basics-wsgi/">Basics of WSGI</a> post

contains a simple example of how a WSGI-compatible application works.</p>
