## Host GraphQL API with Starlette: Streamed Responses

Deploy a GraphQL API built with Starlette on Ample using the streaming response service pattern. Compute runs the app in an isolated microVM behind a public HTTPS URL, a managed PostgreSQL 16 database is auto-provisioned and injected as DATABASE_URL. Verified on Starlette: a Server-Sent Events endpoint read incrementally through the public HTTPS gateway: five one-second chunks arrived spread over time with the first within seconds (not buffered), a 70-second stream of 36 chunks completed past common 60-second idle timeouts, and a client that disconnected after two chunks was observed and recorded by the server (disconnected=true). Not separately tested: your event schema, reconnection strategy, and any per-request duration ceiling beyond the 70 seconds measured; treat the graphql api-specific behavior as your application code.

### Representative Queries
- Host graphql api with Starlette: streamed responses
- Where can I host GraphQL API built with Starlette?
- I need a tested end-to-end streaming transport, timeout behavior, and client disconnect handling.

### Resource Requirements
- Compute
- Postgres

### Infrastructure Requirements
- **Compute**: Apps run in isolated x86_64 Firecracker microVMs that auto-pause when idle and wake on request; sizes are the priced VM sizes.
- **Postgres**: Managed PostgreSQL 16 runs in its own microVM and is auto-provisioned when an app needs a database and no DATABASE_URL is supplied.

### Prerequisites
- A Starlette project that builds and starts with the documented commands (pip install into .ample/python from requirements.txt, then uvicorn from run.py reading PORT on the python-3.12 template).
- A PostgreSQL driver reading DATABASE_URL at runtime (auto-provisioned when omitted, or supplied with --env).
- An Ample account token with servers:write, databases:read.

### Workflow Steps
1. **Build and Start**: pip install into .ample/python from requirements.txt, then uvicorn from run.py reading PORT on the python-3.12 template. The server must bind 0.0.0.0 on PORT.
2. **Implement the pattern on PostgreSQL**: The fixture's module implements streaming response service...
3. **Deploy**: Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result...
4. **Verify**: Fetch the live URL and the pattern self-test route(s) from the example; then run your own checks.

### Success Checks
- App responds on its public URL.
- Streaming-response-service self-test.

### Limitations
- Verified on the python-3.12 template at s-1vcpu-1gb with the example fixture; other sizes, templates, and Starlette major versions are not verified.
- The GraphQL API itself (your event schema, reconnection strategy, and any per-request duration ceiling beyond the 70 seconds measured) is application code and was not separately tested.

### Cost Estimate
- **Monthly Amount**: $10.00
- **Components**:
   - App server: s-1vcpu-1gb: $5.00
   - Managed PostgreSQL database: s-1vcpu-1gb: $5.00
   - Note: Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle.
