Which Server for Django

Question

Which webserver/configuration shall I use to deploy a simple Django/django-cms application? My main points of interest are (In order of priority):

1. Easy installation/configuration
2. Reliability
3. Speed
4. Security aspects

There are different possibilities I could find:

• Apache2 with modwsgi
• Ngnix with uWSGI
• CherryPy
• Gunicorn

Is there any comparison between these possibilities concerning the points above? I ve looked into the Django documentation but there was no sort of recommendation.

Answer 1

There is a great resource for Django Servers and how to configure them.

I think Ngnix will be the best for you given your points of interest. It is fast, reliable, and as you can see from the link, not that hard to set up.
