## Import and set up `SQLAlchemy`

* Import `SQLAlchemy`.
* Create a `metadata` object.
* Create a table `notes` using the `metadata` object.

```Python hl_lines="4  14  16-22"

```

!!! tip
    Notice that all this code is pure SQLAlchemy Core.

| `license_info` | `dict` | The license information for the exposed API. It can contain several fields. <details><summary><code>license_info</code> fields</summary><table><thead><tr><th>Parameter</th><th>Type</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><code>name</code></td><td><code>str</code></td><td><strong>REQUIRED</strong>...

</div>

!!! tip
    With `passlib`, you could even configure it to be able to read passwords created by **Django**, a **Flask** security plug-in or many others.

    So, you would be able to, for example, share the same data from a Django application in a database with a FastAPI application. Or gradually migrate a Django application using the same database.

    And your users would be able to login from your Django app or from your **FastAPI** app, at the same time.

Le serveur 💁 vous donne le numéro assigné à votre commande.

Pendant que vous attendez, vous allez choisir une table avec votre crush 😍, vous discutez avec votre crush 😍 pendant un long moment (les burgers étant "magnifiques" ils sont très longs à préparer ✨🍔✨).

* Running on startup
* Restarts
* Replication (the number of processes running)
* Memory
* Previous steps before starting

We'll see how they would affect **deployments**.

In the end, the ultimate objective is to be able to **serve your API clients** in a way that is **secure**, to **avoid disruptions**, and to use the **compute resources** (for example remote servers/virtual machines) as efficiently as possible. 🚀

If you try interacting with any of the two user interfaces, they will work correctly, because the browser will be able to talk to each specific app or sub-app.

### Technical Details: `root_path`

```Python
from .routers.items import router
from .routers.users import router
```

the `router` from `users` would overwrite the one from `items` and we wouldn't be able to use them at the same time.

So, to be able to use both of them in the same file, we import the submodules directly:

```Python hl_lines="5" title="app/main.py"
{!../../../docs_src/bigger_applications/app/main.py!}
```

If you can choose a more recent version of Python for your project, you will be able to take advantage of that extra simplicity.

In all the docs there are examples compatible with each version of Python (when there's a difference).
