From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

uwsgi (all lowercase) is the native binary protocol that uWSGI uses to communicate with other servers.[5]
uWSGI is often used in conjunction with web servers such as Cherokee and Nginx, which offer direct support for uWSGI's native uwsgi protocol, to serve Python web applications such as Django.[6] For example, data may flow like this: HTTP client ↔ Nginx ↔ uWSGI ↔ Python app.[7]
uWSGI has been in maintenance mode since October 24th, 2022[8]
