A conventional architecture for a Python JSON service that needs strong SQL support.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

Step-by-step workflow

01

Define API routes and schema

Use FastAPI with typed request models, explicit authorization and a health endpoint.

02

Create PostgreSQL schema

Use migrations, least-privilege credentials and indexes based on actual queries.

03

Set up app runtime

Use a dedicated runtime or container-supported server with process supervision.

04

Terminate HTTPS at a reverse proxy

Keep the internal API process off the public network. Forward only expected headers.

05

Run deployment checks

Verify database connectivity, migrations, cold restart, backups and observability.

Editorial note

Examples are starting points, not production security audits. Confirm dependencies, versions and pricing using linked vendor documentation.
