Hands-On Enterprise Application Development with Python

By: Saurabh Badhwar

Overview of this book

Dynamically typed languages like Python are continuously improving. With the addition of exciting new features and a wide selection of modern libraries and frameworks, Python has emerged as an ideal language for developing enterprise applications. Hands-On Enterprise Application Development with Python will show you how to build effective applications that are stable, secure, and easily scalable. The book is a detailed guide to building an end-to-end enterprise-grade application in Python. You will learn how to effectively implement Python features and design patterns that will positively impact your application lifecycle. The book also covers advanced concurrency techniques that will help you build a RESTful application with an optimized frontend. Given that security and stability are the foundation for an enterprise application, you’ll be trained on effective testing, performance analysis, and security practices, and understand how to embed them in your codebase during the initial phase. You’ll also be guided in how to move on from a monolithic architecture to one that is service oriented, leveraging microservices and serverless deployment techniques. By the end of the book, you will have become proficient at building efficient enterprise applications in Python.

Chapter 14. Deploying to the Cloud

A lot of our focus until now has been spent working on the development of the applications, be it in the form of a big monolithic application or in the form of a microservices-based application where a lot of services are present. For these applications to be made available to the users, the applications need to be deployed somewhere where general users can interact with the application.

In the modern world of DevOps, the deployment strategies and where the deployment of the application is going to happen play an important role in defining how the application is going to work and be made accessible to the user. The decisions taken about the deployment of the applications can influence a lot of things inside the infrastructure, such as the complexity of infrastructure that will be required to run a particular application or how the new features inside the application will be rolled out.

Over the course of this chapter, we will take a look at how to create...
