Python development services,engineered to last.

Eleven years running Python in production: the language that handles your API, trains your model, processes your data pipeline, and validates your contracts, often in the same codebase with the same team. Our Python development services know where the architecture decisions matter and where they don't — and we don't treat them the same.

Why Entalogics for Python

Four things every
Python app
actually needs.

What kills Python in production is almost always the same short list — one sync ORM call inside an async view, Celery tasks silently failing, N+1 queries nobody noticed until traffic doubled. We've inherited all of it. We know exactly where to look when a Python development company inherits a codebase that's quietly breaking.

Performance01

One sync call in an async stack costs you everything.

A synchronous ORM query inside an async def view blocks the entire event loop. We audit every layer — database driver, HTTP client, cache — before writing a single new endpoint, on AWS, GCP, or wherever the stack is deployed.

Architecture02

Django and FastAPI aren't competitors. They're complements.

Django's admin and ORM save weeks on workflow-heavy surfaces. FastAPI belongs on high-throughput API and ML inference surfaces. Forcing one to do the other's job is where Python monoliths quietly break down.

State03

Celery is an infrastructure decision, not a default.

Dead-letter queues, beat scheduling, worker concurrency tuning — Celery is powerful and genuinely complex to operate. We add it only when the job complexity actually justifies a second distributed system, not before.

Type safety04

Pydantic v2 at every boundary, not just request bodies.

API responses, environment variables, inter-service payloads — all validated at entry. When a schema changes, broken contracts show up at startup, not in a customer's request log on a Sunday night.

When Python, when not

Python is a tool.
Not a religion.

We'll tell you on the first call if the honest answer is something else — a lighter runtime, or a different stack that fits your team's actual skills better.

PICK PYTHON WHEN

  • ML, data science, or AI is first-class — no other language has a decade head start in that ecosystem
  • The product spans API, pipeline, and model inference — one language across all three is a real operational advantage
  • Django's batteries genuinely earn their weight — admin, ORM, auth, migrations on complex content or workflow surfaces
  • Your team already knows Python well and the domain fits — don't break a stack that ships

CONSIDER OTHERS WHEN

  • Pure high-concurrency I/O with zero data science requirements — Node.js or Go are operationally simpler for that specific shape
  • Microsecond-level latency is a hard requirement — Python's interpreter overhead is real and not solvable with async
  • The team is primarily frontend engineers — Python's tooling punishes that learning gap

WE SAY NO WHEN

  • "Wrap our Jupyter notebooks in an API." That's a Friday afternoon incident waiting to happen, not a production migration.
  • "Python because it's easy." Easy to start is not the same as easy to operate at scale.
  • "Live in two weeks, data model still changing." That ship has sailed.

What we build with Python

Six product surfaces.
One quality bar.

The shapes of Python development we ship most often. Each slots cleanly into your existing infrastructure if you already have one.

  • S01

    FastAPI microservices & AI backends

    Async ASGI services, Pydantic-validated contracts, streaming inference, OpenAPI docs generated automatically — not maintained by hand. The Python API your ML team stops routing around.

    FASTAPIPYDANTIC V2UVICORNSQLALCHEMY
  • S02

    Django SaaS platforms

    Multi-tenant architecture, bounded querysets, role-aware admin, Celery for background processing. Django used as the productivity tool it actually is — not fought against on the surfaces where it doesn't belong.

    DJANGO 5DRFCELERYPOSTGRES
  • S03

    ML inference APIs

    Model serving with async batching to maximise GPU utilisation, streaming token delivery, Pydantic schemas that match model input and output contracts exactly so silent type coercions never reach inference.

    FASTAPIPYTORCHTRANSFORMERSREDIS
  • S04

    Data pipelines & ETL

    Async ingestion, Celery-orchestrated transformation, Pydantic-validated records at every step. Pipelines that fail loudly at the bad record, not silently three hours downstream.

    CELERYPYDANTICSQLALCHEMYKAFKA
  • S05

    Internal tooling

    The spreadsheet that became five. The Jupyter notebook three analysts share over Slack. We replace all of it with real internal tooling.

    Legacy Python migrations

    Flask to FastAPI, Django 3 to Django 5, sync views to async ASGI. One endpoint at a time — the current app keeps serving while we migrate underneath it.

The playbook

Patterns we
ship on repeat.

Hard-won from production — not conference talks.

  • P01

    ASGI all the way through

    Async views, async ORM via SQLAlchemy 2.0 or Django's async ORM, async Redis and HTTP clients. One synchronous call anywhere in the stack undoes every async gain above it.

  • P02

    Pydantic at every boundary

    Request bodies, response models, settings, Celery task arguments — validated at the entry point. Silent type coercions don't reach the database or the model inference layer.

  • P03

    Querysets that don't hide N+1s

    select_related and prefetch_related called explicitly. django-debug-toolbar and nplusone in the test suite to catch query count regressions before they reach production traffic.

  • P04

    Celery with a dead-letter queue

    Every task has a retry strategy, a failure handler, and a dead-letter queue. Queue depth monitored with Flower and wired to alerting before it backs up. Silent background failures are not acceptable.

  • P05

    Typed tests

    Pytest with Pydantic model fixtures, async support via anyio, integration tests against real Postgres with Testcontainers. The test that catches what unit tests miss.

  • P06

    Strangler-fig migrations

    New FastAPI service behind a reverse proxy alongside the legacy Flask or Django app. One endpoint at a time — the old app keeps serving until the new one has earned every route.

Signature case

A data platform,
migrated from sync Django to async FastAPI.

A B2B analytics platform — 3.2s p99 on exports, Celery timing out at 12%, N+1 queries on every dashboard load. Migrated to FastAPI with streaming exports and async ORM in 11 weeks. Without a feature freeze.

Before

p99 export 3.2s · Celery timeout 12% · N+1 on every dashboard · full result set in memory

After

p99 export 0.4s · Celery timeout 0.1% · prefetched queries · streaming, flat memory

  • p99 export improvement−88%
  • Celery timeout rate−99%
  • To fully migrated11wk
  • Shipped regressions0

Engagement shape

Eight to ten weeks
to a measurable ship.

One endpoint at a time. The current application never goes dark.

  • W01

    Audit + RFC

    Two senior Python engineers go through the codebase — query profiling, async compatibility audit, Celery failure analysis, memory usage inventory. A ranked, dollarized RFC, not a list of things that feel bad.

  • W02–03

    Foundation + first endpoint

    ASGI baseline, Pydantic v2 at every boundary, one production endpoint migrated end-to-end. Real p99 numbers in your dashboards, not a benchmark on a clean dev machine.

  • W04–08

    Migrate by endpoint, not flag-day

    Old and new behind a reverse proxy, side-by-side. Kill-switch on every cutover. Your roadmap keeps moving throughout.

  • W09+

    Cleanup + handoff

    Decommission the legacy surface. Pytest coverage on critical paths. Runbook handed to your team — or we stay on retainer.

FAQ

Sharp questions,
straight answers.

FastAPI vs. Django, Flask migrations, the GIL — the questions we get on every Python development discovery call.
Django when you need the batteries — admin panel, ORM, migrations, auth — and the surface is content or workflow heavy. FastAPI when the surface is API-first, async I/O matters, or ML inference is in the picture. Most serious Python platforms run both: Django handles the admin and data layer, FastAPI handles the high-throughput API surface.
Yes. Flask and FastAPI sit behind the same reverse proxy — one endpoint migrates at a time, Flask keeps serving the rest. No flag-day. No freeze. Your team ships throughout. A full Flask-to-FastAPI migration typically runs 8–12 weeks depending on codebase size.
Process-level parallelism via Celery workers, not threads. For ML inference specifically: model loading in a separate process pool, async batching to maximise GPU utilisation. The GIL is a real constraint on a single Python process — multiple processes is always the answer, not threads.
Yes. The engineers who write the RFC are the ones shipping the code — no mid-engagement handoff to a junior team, no account manager in the middle.
Yes. We adapt to what's already there and flag in the RFC where structural changes would genuinely reduce risk. If your data layer works, we build on top of it instead of rewriting it to match our preferences.
