Gunicorn vs Swoole: What are the differences?

Developers describe Gunicorn as "A Python WSGI HTTP Server for UNIX". Gunicorn is a pre-fork worker model ported from Ruby's Unicorn project. The Gunicorn server is broadly compatible with various web frameworks, simply implemented, light on server resources, and fairly speedy. On the other hand, Swoole is detailed as "Coroutine asynchronous programming framework for PHP". It is an open source high-performance network framework using an event-driven, asynchronous, non-blocking I/O model which makes it scalable and efficient.

Gunicorn and Swoole belong to "Web Servers" category of the tech stack.

Gunicorn is an open source tool with 6.1K GitHub stars and 1.16K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Gunicorn's open source repository on GitHub.
