Turbo is completely based on Tornado, so it can be said that Turbo provides a very complete solution on top of Tornado, and is simple enough. Turbo’s flexibility and scalability is suitable for very large projects, whether individual applications or microservices.

Turbo will provide more specific scenarios for MySQL and Redis in the future, aiming to make Turbo a more complete back-end solution on the Tornado technology stack.
