Sanic
Sanic is a Python ASGI web framework and asynchronous HTTP server. It is designed to build high-performance web applications and servers that handle concurrent requests using non-blocking logic.
The framework implements the Asynchronous Server Gateway Interface standard, allowing applications to be deployed across various ASGI-compatible servers. It utilizes an asyncio-based event loop and integrates a Cython-based runtime wrapper around libuv to manage I/O operations.
The system manages traffic through route-based request dispatching and a middleware-based request pipeline. These components enable the processing of multiple simultaneous connections without blocking.
