uwsgi (all lowercase) is the native binary protocol that uWSGI uses to communicate with other servers.[4]
uWSGI is often used for serving Python web applications in conjunction with web servers such as Cherokee and Nginx, which offer direct support for uWSGI's native uwsgi protocol.[5] For example, data may flow like this: HTTP client ↔ Nginx ↔ uWSGI ↔ Python app.[6]
