> Modern versions of Python have support for **"asynchronous code"** using something called **"coroutines"**, with **`async` and `await`** syntax.

That should make more sense now. ✨

All that is what powers FastAPI (through Starlette) and what makes it have such an impressive performance.

## Very Technical Details { #very-technical-details }

You can probably skip this.

    val request2Listener: EventListener =
      object : EventListener() {
        override fun connectStart(
          call: Call,
          inetSocketAddress: InetSocketAddress,
          proxy: Proxy,
        ) {
          // Let request1 proceed to make a connection.
          latch1.countDown()

You will see examples of this in the next chapters, about relational and NoSQL databases, security, etc.

## **FastAPI** compatibility { #fastapi-compatibility }

The simplicity of the dependency injection system makes **FastAPI** compatible with:

* all the relational databases
* NoSQL databases
* external packages
* external APIs
* authentication and authorization systems
* API usage monitoring systems

## Restarts { #restarts }

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