If you are developing an application with an older non-async framework, and can work with all its defaults, **it can be a great tool**.

But if you need to change some of the defaults, support more than one predefined database, work with an async framework (like FastAPI), etc, you will need to add quite some complex extra code to override those defaults.

In this case, it requires the scope `me` (it could require more than one scope).

!!! note
    You don't necessarily need to add different scopes in different places.

    We are doing it here to demonstrate how **FastAPI** handles scopes declared at different levels.

Aqui é onde se torna importante a possibilidade de declarar <abbr title="greater than"><code>gt</code></abbr> e não apenas <abbr title="greater than or equal"><code>ge</code></abbr>. Com isso você pode especificar, por exemplo, que um valor deve ser maior que `0`, ainda que seja menor que `1`.

Assim, `0.5` seria um valor válido. Mas `0.0` ou `0` não seria.

E o mesmo para <abbr title="less than"><code>lt</code></abbr>.

```Python hl_lines="11"

Таким образом, `0.5` будет корректным значением. А `0.0` или `0` — нет.

То же самое справедливо и для <abbr title="less than"><code>lt</code></abbr>.

You probably read before that you can set a default [Response Status Code](../tutorial/response-status-code.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

But in some cases you need to return a different status code than the default.

## Use case

For example, imagine that you want to return an HTTP status code of "OK" `200` by default.

But if the data didn't exist, you want to create it, and return an HTTP status code of "CREATED" `201`.

    ```

## Number validations: floats, greater than and less than

Number validations also work for `float` values.

Here's where it becomes important to be able to declare <abbr title="greater than"><code>gt</code></abbr> and not just <abbr title="greater than or equal"><code>ge</code></abbr>. As with it you can require, for example, that a value must be greater than `0`, even if it is less than `1`.

## Origin

An origin is the combination of protocol (`http`, `https`), domain (`myapp.com`, `localhost`, `localhost.tiangolo.com`), and port (`80`, `443`, `8080`).

So, all these are different origins:

* Memory
* Previous steps before starting

## Memory

If you run **a single process per container** you will have a more or less well-defined, stable, and limited amount of memory consumed by each of those containers (more than one if they are replicated).

This means that you can send only the data that you want to update, leaving the rest intact.

!!! note
    `PATCH` is less commonly used and known than `PUT`.

    And many teams use only `PUT`, even for partial updates.

    You are **free** to use them however you want, **FastAPI** doesn't impose any restrictions.

## Uvicorn with Workers

Uvicorn also has an option to start and run several **worker processes**.

Nevertheless, as of now, Uvicorn's capabilities for handling worker processes are more limited than Gunicorn's. So, if you want to have a process manager at this level (at the Python level), then it might be better to try with Gunicorn as the process manager.

In any case, you would run it like this:
