Daemonized HTTP server? several deployment options including Gunicorn

[lee212]

At some point, the flask needs to come with stand alone HTTP server in production. Fortunately, there are several options that we can choose to run flask_cm application.

Gunicorn looks quite simple so it would be better to leave a short note here.

• Install gunicorn: pip install gunicorn
• Run gunicorn: gunicorn flask_cm/server:app
• With other options: gunicorn -w 4 -b 127.0.0.1:5000 flask_cm/server:app
• (-w number of workers, -b binding name with port number)

Also, we can add a proxy server to protect services from any type of compromising situations. Gunicorn can comes with Nginx.
