I am using python and flask.

I am using a microservices built using flask and configured to support a service bus architecture. The microservice is capable of making concurrent service calls and now I need to improve the performance in the service calls being made concurrently.

Initially I used python threading module however it was resulting in blocking calls for main service which invoked it. I would like to know if we try using producer/consumer style of setting this up will that do some good to my requirement.

Basically my main thread should not get stuck indefenitely and that happens when I use join().

Why are you calling `join()` if you don't want the caller blocked? – Darkonaut Feb 11 '18 at 10:46
If I don't call join how will the parent know the child isAlive for response. – Varad Feb 11 '18 at 23:31
That's the `is_alive()`-method for. You can call it in intervals (e.g. time.sleep(0.1)) within a while-loop to check if the thread is still alive. – Darkonaut Feb 12 '18 at 06:00
