Python for Compute-Intensive Backends
The GIL is no excuse. Async I/O, multiprocessing for CPU-bound, memory management that doesn't explode in production.
Data Science, ML, APIs, Automation
Python for every compute-intensive use case
Python is not just "the ML language". It's the optimal runtime for data engineering (Polars, pandas), ML inference (PyTorch, ONNX), async APIs (FastAPI), and automation (scripts, ETL). The GIL is managed: async for I/O, multiprocessing for CPU-bound.
What We Deliver
Every Python project includes:
Incluido
- Complete async FastAPI API
- Pydantic v2 for data validation
- SQLAlchemy 2.0 + Alembic (migrations)
- Tests with pytest (>80% coverage)
- mypy strict + Ruff (linting)
- CI/CD pipeline configured
- Docker + Kubernetes ready
- Automatic OpenAPI documentation
No incluido
- ML model serving (ONNX/PyTorch)
- Monthly maintenance
For Decision Makers
Python is the ML/AI language. Integrating models with APIs is direct, no bridges between languages.
FastAPI is Python's fastest framework, comparable to Node.js for I/O-bound.
Mature ecosystem: PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, pandas/polars directly accessible.
For CTOs
FastAPI async with uvicorn/gunicorn workers. Pydantic v2 is 10x faster than v1.
GIL-aware: async for I/O, ProcessPoolExecutor for CPU-bound, Celery for background jobs.
ONNX Runtime for optimized inference. Model serving with Triton or custom FastAPI endpoints.
Production Stack
Is It for You?
Who it's for
- Teams needing ML inference in production
- Compute-intensive backends (data processing, ETL)
- Integrations with data science ecosystem
- APIs consuming PyTorch/TensorFlow models
- Projects with I/O-bound concurrency requirements
Who it's not for
- Simple web apps where Node.js suffices
- Mobile backends without ML component
- Projects where <10ms latency is critical (consider Go/Rust)
Risk Reduction
How we mitigate common Python challenges
GIL blocking CPU
multiprocessing/ProcessPoolExecutor for CPU-bound. Profiling with py-spy.
Memory leaks in production
tracemalloc + objgraph in staging. Sustained load tests.
Slow ML model
ONNX Runtime for optimization. Batching for throughput.
Methodology
API Spec
OpenAPI spec + Pydantic models first.
Core
Business logic with tests. mypy strict.
ML Integration
Optimized model serving. ONNX when applicable.
Production
Docker, K8s, monitoring, alerts.
Use Cases
ML Inference APIs
Serve PyTorch/ONNX models in production.
ETL Pipelines
Data processing with Polars/pandas.
Analytics Backends
APIs for dashboards and reporting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Python or Node.js for my API?
Python if you have ML/data science. Node.js for pure I/O without ML. Python with FastAPI is comparable for I/O-bound performance.
Doesn't the GIL limit performance?
For I/O-bound, async avoids the problem. For CPU-bound, multiprocessing. The GIL is manageable with correct architecture.
How do you serve ML models?
ONNX Runtime for cross-platform optimization. Custom FastAPI endpoints or Triton Inference Server for high throughput.
Django or FastAPI?
FastAPI for pure APIs. Django if you need admin, mature ORM, and plugin ecosystem. FastAPI is faster and more modern.
Does it include team training?
Yes. Initial pair programming, architecture documentation, FastAPI/async workshops.
What monitoring is included?
Prometheus + Grafana. ML-specific: inference latency, drift detection, model versioning.
Hosting included?
We configure on AWS/GCP/Azure. GPU instances if needed. EU servers for GDPR.
Post-launch support?
Monthly contracts. Model retraining, optimization, security updates.
ML Model in Notebooks That Doesn't Scale?
From Jupyter to production. ML architecture serving millions of requests.
