Is it possible in Django to load data into the Memory, process it and return it to the User?

Example: User uploads image -> Python Script process it (e.g. make it s/w) -> User sees processed Image on same Webpage

(Other Examples would be all these "convert-online" sites like pdf2doc.com)

Is it a bad idea to load it into the Memory?

Would a Queue and saving it on a CDN be a better solution?

I'm trying to understand the possibilities of handling files from the User, which don't need to be safed. I appreciate any further ideas/considerations.

  • Have you checked out [this tutorial](https://dustindavis.me/django-custom-upload-handler-to-compress-image-files/)? There is also an update to the code snippet that you [can find here](https://gist.github.com/davidwtbuxton/4135069). – Marcello B. Dec 01 '17 at 07:23
  • Thank you, this helps me further answering the first question. So it is possible by extending the MemoryFileUploadHandler. I'll try to implement this into a web app to have a better understanding of the consequences. – 90PercentNewbie Dec 01 '17 at 09:32
