Secrets of a WSGI master.
summary
mod_wsgi is the WSGI bridge for Apache and the talk shows concrete commands and configs that make it practical: pip install mod_wsgi then mod_wsgi-express start-server or --setup-only to generate Apache config, use --reload for development and --enable-debugger to drop into pdb, and let mod_wsgi-express auto serve Django static files. build and run reproducible Docker images with warpdrive (warp drive build/start) and source-to-image. enable daemon mode, set socket timeout ≈60s, use restart-interval or request-timeout to auto-recover, run as non-root and use virtualenv for reliable production behavior.
