Flask and web servers

While Flask includes a local web server for testing purposes, it is not designed for production deployments. Flask works best with web servers like Apache or IIS. While there is a lot of literature on how to deploy Flask with Apache, it is less common to find good instructions on how to deploy it using IIS. As most GIS professionals work with Windows servers or have access to them, these instructions will focus on deployment with IIS 7.
