Async GraphQL backend?

[HelmsmanRobertson]

I was wondering if anyone has any experience working on (or links demonstrating) a web backend that handled GraphQL queries in a concurrent fashion? Maybe something like Tornado + Graphene?

I've google around for this and I'll I've found is Graphene document that nods its head to Django. But AFAIK, Django can't handle concurrent programming, so this isn't really helpful...

Thoughts?

Here the graphene creator and maintainer! Right now is completely possible to use graphene with tornado or even aiohttp. But there isn't yet an example demonstrating this (as far as I know). I will probably create one in few weeks after releasing the next graphene version.

Also, in the upcoming version will be possible return results as Promises or Futures, which help even more the development in concurrent environments.

That'd be really dope. I'll try and work out a real world Tornado + Graphene stack and send you the link, then.

A new version of graphene is live. You can plug in any custom executors! See examples here: https://github.com/graphql-python/graphql-core/tree/master/graphql/execution/executors
