that is called learning from the experience, chris. yes, his server
specifications may vary, his db of choice may vary but in the end this
is all the same.

@sam,

proxying nginx to paster is not a good idea. been there, done that. do
not do that if you are not going to get max 1K-5K "daily" unique
traffic. in the cookbook it should say, "this is how to do it, but
don't do it." i'd recommend that only for intranet use for small sized
company.

if you are going to get good amount of traffic like 5K - 10K reqs/min,
go with apache and mod_wsgi. apache is great and can handle that
traffic smoothly. you can use 2 web servers if needed.

if you are going to get great traffic that you need to handle more
than 20K concurrent users,  i'd suggest going with nginx + uwsgi.
however in such deployments do not use one server. get min. 2 servers,
1 db. server and have a load balancer. in my next wsgi deployment, i
will give nginx + gevent a try.

and finally, i will recommend you watching this[1] django deployment
workshop by jacob kaplan moss of django. it applies to every wsgi app.
