It is best to use Gunicorn behind an HTTP proxy server. We strongly advise you to use nginx. Here's an example to help you get started with using nginx: server { listen 80; server_name example.org; access_log /var/log/nginx/example.log; location / { proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; } } Nginx is set up as reverse proxy server to a Gunicorn server running on localhost port 8000.
