Difference Between Mod_Python &
Mod_Wsgi thumbnail mod_python and mod_wsgi turn the Apache web server into
an application server.
Web developers have a
variety of proprietary and open-source tools available to create the rich
experiences of social networking e-commerce, and electronic publishing
that we have come to expect. Two open source tools based on the Python
programming language are mod_python and python_wsgi. Both can be used to
create interactive, database-driven websites, but each offers certain
advantages and disadvantages. Have a question? Get an answer from online

mod_python
Developed as a means of improving on the speed of cgi requests, mod_python
embeds a Python interpreter within the Apache web server. This creates a
more streamlined approach to running server side scripts than the
perl-based cgi approach, which required the server to create a new process
for each request. It also gave Python programmers access to the internals
of Apache, allowing them to take advantage of Apache‘s logging functions.
A set of standard handlers in mod_Python allows the creation of robust web
applications.
mod_wsgi
Like mod_python, mod_wsgi is also an Apache module. It implements the WSGI
specification, a means of standardizing the interfaces between web servers
and Python-based web application servers and web frameworks. It can run in
embedded mode, similar to mod_python, where the Apache web server
interprets Python code directly, without creating the overhead of
additional processes. It also offers a second operational mode in which it
executes Python code in its own dedicated process
