The initial section of the book will start with basic Python programming along with introduction to FastAPI including with working with Pydantic objects. It will also teach you about Dependency Injection in FastAPI.The book will then slowly introduce the concepts of different databases where you will learn how to create models including authentication mechanism and security in FastAPI. You will learn how to test an API and how to deploy a FastAPI project using Docker.On the final section the book will help you in building resilient and distributed data science systems with FastAPI. You will create prediction API endpoint using FastAPI and also implement a real time object detection system using WebSockets with FastAPI. You will also learn how to monitor the health and performance of a Data Science system.

I have seen a lot of data science applications that don't follow the best practices - in terms of not having a data model, logging metrics efficiently, etc. I recommend everyone who is developing APIs refer this. This book is for everyone - whether you are starting off with API development in Python or, are a seasoned professional trying to incorporate best practices. This book guides you through the basics of API development using FastAPI and Pydantic + Python Data Science stack (numpy + scikit learn) along with modern generative AI models (like Stable Diffusion) and later delves into more advanced concepts like distributed serving (using Dramatiq) and logging using Loguru + Grafana for displaying the logs.The author has given plenty of code examples so that it is super easy to follow along and also mentions other books you might want to check out if you want to specialize in this.This book, personally, has been a great help in my work in reducing some of the technical debt around efficient APIs.

As data science proliferates, the need for reliable and well-designed APIs to serve machine learning models grows. This new book provides Python developers with an accessible guide to creating performant, production-ready APIs for data science using the FastAPI framework.Written by experienced practitioners, the book aims to teach readers end-to-end implementation of performant data science backends. The authors recognize that while many resources explain Python machine learning concepts, practical guidance on building maintainable APIs is scarce. This book fills that gap with concrete examples using modern Python tools like FastAPI, Pydantic, and SQLAlchemy.The book covers FastAPI basics like routing, validation, and dependency injection before diving into advanced topics like authentication, databases, and real-time features. Two full projects showcase applying the concepts: an object detection system using WebSockets and a text-to-image generator with a distributed backend. The hands-on approach teaches not just FastAPI usage but also API design best practices.Importantly, the book goes beyond basics to tackle critical real-world aspects of robust APIs like testing, monitoring, and deployment. The authors understand that clean code is only part of the equation - things like logging, performance metrics, and containerization are essential for production systems. This focus on practical engineering makes the book invaluable for readers building their first serious data science service.While focusing on FastAPI, the book aptly explains foundational Python programming topics like asynchronous programming, object-oriented design, and type hinting for readers with basic data science Python skills. The accessible writing style introduces complex concepts clearly without oversimplifying.Ultimately, this book succeeds as a comprehensive modern guide to crafting production-ready data science APIs. It balances theoretical understanding with practical engineering principles. Readers will learn how FastAPI simplifies API development while gaining skills for creating maintainable, high-quality services. For Python developers looking to level up their API building abilities, this book is an indispensable resource.
