If there's a security flaw in your code, it will still exist.

I'll give you more concrete examples in the next chapters.

## Restarts

Similar to making sure your application is run on startup, you probably also want to make sure it is **restarted** after failures.

### We Make Mistakes

We, as humans, make **mistakes**, all the time. Software almost *always* has **bugs** hidden in different places. 🐛

* Decompressing gzip-compressed request bodies.
* Automatically logging all request bodies.

## Handling custom request body encodings

Let's see how to make use of a custom `Request` subclass to decompress gzip requests.

And an `APIRoute` subclass to use that custom request class.

### Create a custom `GzipRequest` class

        to make the mark be on the same line as the link
    */

}

a.internal-link::after {
  /* \00A0 is a non-breaking space
        to make the mark be on the same line as the link
    */

Many packages that simplify it a lot have to make many compromises with the data model, database, and available features. And some of these packages that simplify things too much actually have security flaws underneath.

---

**FastAPI** doesn't make any compromise with any database, data model or tool.

For example, if some code at some point in the middle, in another dependency or in a *path operation*, made a database transaction "rollback" or create any other error, you will receive the exception in your dependency.

So, you can look for that specific exception inside the dependency with `except SomeException`.

In the same way, you can use `finally` to make sure the exit steps are executed, no matter if there was an exception or not.

After you have tests, then you can upgrade the **FastAPI** version to a more recent one, and make sure that all your code is working correctly by running your tests.

If everything is working, or after you make the necessary changes, and all your tests are passing, then you can pin your `fastapi` to that new recent version.

## About Starlette

    This is here only to preview a site with translations already built.

    Make sure you run the build-all command first.

    typer.echo("Warning: this is a very simple server.")
    typer.echo("For development, use the command live instead.")
    typer.echo("This is here only to preview a site with translations already built.")
    typer.echo("Make sure you run the build-all command first.")

# Deployment

Deploying a **FastAPI** application is relatively easy.

## What Does Deployment Mean

To **deploy** an application means to perform the necessary steps to make it **available to the users**.

For a **web API**, it normally involves putting it in a **remote machine**, with a **server program** that provides good performance, stability, etc, so that your **users** can **access** the application efficiently and without interruptions or problems.
