I am making a service, that takes analytical data and counts correlation between this data and database data.
Because of the fact that there is a lot of correlations to build (could be up to 10 hours computations), I want to make sure that process has begun and to send a response with something like a loading bar.
So any time the request is sent, the response should contain information on how much is computed.
Could Flask provide this solution?
While normally I'd refrain from answering such a broad question. I was actually curious about this myself. I've collected a couple of resources below which you should find helpful.

Now, that said. In the future I would suggest you avoid asking broad sweeping questions like "is xyz possible." This is because normally the answer is "yes, but it's hard", or "yes, but don't". There is a great stack overflow page about how to ask effective questions in order to get the most helpful answers. I suggest reading it and understanding the basic principle behind it.
