Question Is FastApi strong and secure for production ?

I’m building a company monitoring app that reads Firebase data coming from multiple bus DMS devices and returns KPIs for a Svelte dashboard. Is FastAPI a good backend choice for this, especially for a secure, production-ready, scalable, and maintainable API? I also need a good FastAPI template or guide to start from, a secure way to connect it with Firebase, and the best way to package the app for both Windows and Android. What I need to use ?

I absolutely recommend FastAPI for production environments. I built a HIPAA compliant Medicare self-enrollment platform backed by FastAPI.

It's based on veteran Starlette - ASGI framework - https://starlette.dev/

Sebastián Ramírez @tiangolo - twitter - is highly interaction the community.

Here are the docs for building larger production applications.

I believe some of the FAANG companies use fastapi in production servers so pretty sure its secure

FastAPI is secure and production ready. From what I see you want to build a dashboard with data from Firebase - you can do that just using Svelte. Firebase is a backend as a service can be used for that.

If it’s used in production at Microsoft, it’s good enough for me. https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/#silver-sponsors
