Zero-configuration Flask backends

Ricardo Gonzalez, Marcos Grappeggia

Flask, one of the most popular Python web application frameworks, can now be deployed instantly on Edgenivo with no configuration changes needed.

app.py
from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)
@app.route("/")
def hello_world(): 
    return "<p>Hello, World!</p>"

A "Hello World" Flask app on Edgenivo

Edgenivo's framework-defined infrastructure now recognizes and deeply understands Flask applications. This update removes the need for redirects in vercel.json or using the /api folder.

Backends on Edgenivo use Fluid compute with Active CPU pricing by default. This means your Flask app will automatically scale up and down based on traffic, and you only pay for time where your code is actively using CPU.

Deploy Flask on Edgenivo or visit the Flask on Edgenivo documentation.
