"_Honestly, what you've built looks super solid and polished. In many ways, it's what I wanted **Hug** to be - it's really inspiring to see someone build that._"

I was never able to use it in a full project, as it didn't have security integration, so, I couldn't replace all the features I was having with the full-stack generators based on Flask-apispec. I had in my backlog of projects to create a pull request adding that functionality.

But then, the project's focus shifted.

By considering these concepts, you will be able to **evaluate and design** the best way to deploy **your own APIs**.

In the next chapters, I'll give you more **concrete recipes** to deploy FastAPI applications.

* Improve internal typing, declare `Optional` parameters. PR [#1731](https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/pull/1731) by [@MashhadiNima](https://github.com/MashhadiNima).
* Add external link [Deploy FastAPI on Azure App Service](https://www.tutlinks.com/deploy-fastapi-on-azure/) to docs. PR [#1726](https://github.com/tiangolo/fastapi/pull/1726) by [@windson](https://github.com/windson).

This could be useful, for example, to expose the same API under different prefixes, e.g. `/api/v1` and `/api/latest`.

This is an advanced usage that you might not really need, but it's there in case you do.

## Include an `APIRouter` in another

The same way you can include an `APIRouter` in a `FastAPI` application, you can include an `APIRouter` in another `APIRouter` using:

* In many cases, it's better to understand their **underlying problem or use case**, because there might be a better way to solve it than what they are trying to do.

### Ask to close

If they reply, there's a high chance you would have solved their problem, congrats, **you're a hero**! 🦸

* Now, if that solved their problem, you can ask them to:

    * In GitHub Discussions: mark the comment as the **answer**.

# Deploy FastAPI on Cloud Providers

You can use virtually **any cloud provider** to deploy your FastAPI application.

In most of the cases, the main cloud providers have guides to deploy FastAPI with them.

## Cloud Providers - Sponsors

Some cloud providers ✨ [**sponsor FastAPI**](../help-fastapi.md#sponsor-the-author){.internal-link target=_blank} ✨, this ensures the continued and healthy **development** of FastAPI and its **ecosystem**.
