Used gunicorn for production, because Gunicorn is a WSGI server that takes care of everything which happens in-between the web server and the web application. It is used because it is stable and can handle more requests at once and is very fast.

Docker deploy

Go to your root folder where the Dockerfile is located: Run this

docker build -t aws-api .

Run the docker image

docker run -d -p 5000:5000 aws-api

Access the aws-api on localhost:5000/api/v1
