Tornado is an open source version of the scalable, non-blocking web
|
||
|
|
server and tools.
|
||
|
|
The framework is distinct from most mainstream web server frameworks
|
||
|
|
(and certainly most Python frameworks) because it is non-blocking and
|
||
|
|
reasonably fast. Because it is non-blocking and uses epoll or kqueue, it
|
||
|
|
can handle thousands of simultaneous standing connections, which means
|
||
|
|
it is ideal for real-time web services.
