fastapi VS BentoML

That’s when I found FastAPI.

An API application framework (such as FastAPI)

It’s been my experience that async Python frameworks tend to turn IO bound problems into CPU bound problems with a high enough request rate, because due to their nature they act as unbounded queues.

This ends up made worse if you’re using sync routes.

If you’re constrained on a resource such as a database connection pool, your framework will continue to pull http requests off the wire that a sane client will cancel and retry due to timeouts because it takes too long to get a connection out of the pool. Since there isn’t a straightforward way to cancel the execution of a route handler in every Python http framework I’ve seen exhibit this problem, the problem quickly snowballs.

This is an issue with fastapi, too- https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/issues/5759

Fast API.

We will create our API using FastAPI, a modern high-performance web framework for building fast APIs with Python. It is designed to be easy to use, efficient, and highly scalable. Some key features of FastAPI include:

FastAPI is a modern, fast, web framework for building APIs with Python 3.7+ based on standard Python type hints. It is designed to be easy to use, fast to run, and secure. In this blog post, we’ll explore the key features of FastAPI and walk through the process of creating a simple API using this powerful framework.

FastAPI is a modern, fast web framework for building APIs with Python 3.7+ that automatically generates OpenAPI and JSON Schema documentation. While FastAPI simplifies API development, manually creating and updating API documentation can still be a time-consuming task. In this blog post, we’ll explore how to leverage FastAPI’s automatic documentation generation capabilities, specifically focusing on Swagger and ReDoc, and how to streamline the process of documenting your APIs.

there are a few tools you can use as "cheat mode" shortcuts to give you a leg up as you're getting started. here's one: https://github.com/bentoml/BentoML

Then you can look into bentoml https://github.com/bentoml/BentoML which is used to deploy ml stuff with many more benifits.

For 2), I am aware of a few options. Triton inference server is an obvious one as is the ‘transformer-deploy’ version from LDS. My only reservation here is that they require the model compilation or are architecture specific. I am aware of others like Bento, Ray serving and TorchServe. Ideally I would have something that allows any (PyTorch model) to be used without the extra compilation effort (or at least optionally) and has some convenience things like ease of use, easy to deploy, easy to host multiple models and can perform some dynamic batching. Anyway, I am really interested to hear people's experience here as I know there are now quite a few options! Any help is appreciated!

In this category I’m a big fan of https://github.com/bentoml/BentoML

What I like about it is their idiomatic developer experience. It reminds me of other Pythonic frameworks like Flask and Django in a good way.

I have no affiliation with them whatsoever, just an admirer.
