Hosting a simple web application

[daveluo]

Hi everyone, just came across this thread. ICYMI, I posted a step-by-step overview (and github repo) of creating and deploying a web app demo of a fastai-trained model with flask, gunicorn, nginx, and remote hosting:

Exposing DL models as api's/microservices

Thanks everyone for this very practical and useful thread so far. @ramesh and I set up and deployed a minimalist web app demonstrating predictions by an object detection pytorch model trained with the Fast.ai library. We used Flask to set up the app with a /predict API endpoint, Nginx & Gunicorn to manage the app/requests, and Paperspace’s c2 CPU-only instance for hosting. Here is the demo app for “CocoNet”, the coconut tree aerial object detection model adapted from lesson 9 (pascal-multi): […
