Asynchronous programming in Tornado

Asynchronous programming with Tornado

Asynchronous programming can be tricky for beginners, therefore I think it's useful to iron some basic concepts to avoid common pitfalls.

For an explanation about generic asynchronous programming, I recommend you one of the [many][2] [resources][3] [online][4].

I will focus on solely on asynchronous programming in [Tornado][1]. From Tornado's homepage:

Flask SQLAlchemy Caching

Flask-SQLAlchemy Caching

The following gist is an extract of the article Flask-SQLAlchemy Caching. It allows automated simple cache query and invalidation of cache relations through event among other features.

Usage

retrieve one object

# pulling one User object

user = User.query.get(1)
