title: Making a pure RESTful data-service service in Python (no web pages - just calls & responses)
body: <p>I would like to build a pure data services applications in Python.</p>
  
  <p>It will sit on a server, manipulate data, and then will serve the results of various analysis when called via RESTful API.</p>
  
  <p>There will be no webpages - just RESTful calls to the app, server side processing, and a return.</p>
  
  <p>I am thinking of using flask for this - is this a suitable choice or should I consider something else?</p>
