Hi guys, my networking friend wants to get into programming to create
an app. Can someone please tell me if this type of application is
possible in python? and what libraries/frameworks are needed.

I consulted the python irc channel and the response from a user is
that they don't think it's a Python issue but a 2nd opinion is
welcome.

Here are the details:

1) client makes DNS request to resolve apps url to an IP address.
2) client's DNS-proxy forwards the request to one of the 3 global load
balancers fronting the application.
3) Responding load balancer uses geolocation info to direct user to an
external server in the regional cloud closest to them.
4) Subsequent DNS requests from the same client's DNS-proxy is
directed to the same server in the cloud.
5) client/user creates a TCP connection to the login server in the cloud.
6) The SSL session is terminated and re-encrypted and forwarded to
another server.
7) If an existing user, a login prompt will be provided for the user
to to input a username and password.
8) If a new user, they would have to enter registration details.


There is a lot more to this, but you get this gist. I won't go on and
bore you with more detail.
