In particular, when running on **Kubernetes** you will probably **not** want to use Gunicorn and instead run **a single Uvicorn process per container**, but I'll tell you about it later in that chapter.

## Gunicorn with Uvicorn Workers

But for now, let's check these important **conceptual ideas**. These concepts also apply to any other type of web API. 💡

## Security - HTTPS

In the [previous chapter about HTTPS](https.md){.internal-link target=_blank} we learned about how HTTPS provides encryption for your API.

# Simple OAuth2 with Password and Bearer

Now let's build from the previous chapter and add the missing parts to have a complete security flow.

## Get the `username` and `password`

We are going to use **FastAPI** security utilities to get the `username` and `password`.

OAuth2 specifies that when using the "password flow" (that we are using) the client/user must send a `username` and `password` fields as form data.

That defines the metadata about the main response of a *path operation*.

You can also declare additional responses with their models, status codes, etc.

There's a whole chapter here in the documentation about it, you can read it at [Additional Responses in OpenAPI](additional-responses.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

## OpenAPI Extra

This code is something you can actually use in your application, save the password hashes in your database, etc.

We are going to start from where we left in the previous chapter and increment it.

## About JWT

JWT means "JSON Web Tokens".

It's a standard to codify a JSON object in a long dense string without spaces. It looks like this:

```

And that function takes parameters in the same way that *path operation functions* do.

!!! tip
    You'll see what other "things", apart from functions, can be used as dependencies in the next chapter.

Whenever a new request arrives, **FastAPI** will take care of:

* Calling your dependency ("dependable") function with the correct parameters.
* Get the result from your function.

But even if you never use **FastAPI**, you would benefit from learning a bit about them.

!!! note
    If you are a Python expert, and you already know everything about type hints, skip to the next chapter.

## Motivation

Let's start with a simple example:

```Python
{!../../../docs_src/python_types/tutorial001.py!}
```

Calling this program outputs:

## Official Docker Image with Gunicorn - Uvicorn

There is an official Docker image that includes Gunicorn running with Uvicorn workers, as detailed in a previous chapter: [Server Workers - Gunicorn with Uvicorn](server-workers.md){.internal-link target=_blank}.

		fileName = part.FileName()

		// Multiple values for the same key (one map entry, longer slice) are cheaper
		// than the same number of values for different keys (many map entries), but
		// using a consistent per-value cost for overhead is simpler.

		maxMemoryBytes -= int64(len(name))
