Summary     : A WSGI interface for Python web applications in Apache
Description :
The mod_wsgi adapter is an Apache module that provides a WSGI compliant

adapter is written completely in C code against the Apache C runtime and
for hosting WSGI applications within Apache has a lower overhead than using
existing WSGI adapters for mod_python or CGI.
