uWSGI
-----

`uWSGI <https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org>`_ is a full stack for building
hosting services. In addition to process management, process monitoring,
and other functionality, uWSGI acts as an application server for various
programming languages and protocols - including Python and WSGI. uWSGI can
either be run as a stand-alone web router, or be run behind a full web
server (such as Nginx or Apache). In the latter case, a web server can
configure uWSGI and an application's operation over the
`uwsgi <https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Protocol.html>`_
protocol. uWSGI's web server support allows for dynamically configuring
Python, passing environment variables and further tuning. For full details,
see `uWSGI magic
variables <https://uwsgi-docs.readthedocs.org/en/latest/Vars.html>`_.
