I'm new to web programming and I have a basic question about the design of my Django application. my application will do some number crunching on data files uploaded by users. The data processing will take from minutes to hours for each job. I don't expect to ever get a large number of concurrent users but I'd still like to set it up so that I can control the maximum number of data processing jobs that are run in parallel. I was planning to write a simple FIFO queue manager (in fact I think there is a python package for this) and then run the data processing in separate threads. I'm also planning to use the Django data model for storing the data so I would have multiple threads writing to the data store. What is not clear to me is what happens when I have more than one visitor to the site. Are multiple instances of my Django app launched, one per visitor? I need to ensure that I only have one queue manager running on the server, not one per visitor. I would be using Apache and either mySQL or sqlite3 as the database, in case that matters.
