🎙️ TALK: Partitioning very large tables with Django and PostgreSQL by @timb07
Database tables in PostgreSQL cause increasing performance and maintenance issues as they grow larger. In this talk, we'll look at ways of managing those problems with partitioning, the choices available, and how to partition existing tables at Kraken scale with Django.
⚙️ WORKSHOP: Django-Admin-Deux: From First Steps to Custom Plugins by @EmmaDelescolle
Explore Django-Admin-Deux: a proof-of-concept Django admin replacement where CRUD operations are just actions, knowledge transfers both ways, and everything feels like Django. We'll dive into the core concepts behind Django-Admin-Deux and build an application together, including a custom plugin.
🎙️ TALK: Scaling the database - using multiple databases with Django by @jake
The question is simple: How do you scale Django beyond a single database? The answer isn't simple, but it is fun and interesting.
