How to optimize database performance foran application that will be accessed by thousands of users?
I'm working on a project, trying to build an application which needs to be accessed by almost 100 to 200 users which be scaled later. I'm thinking of using local and cloud database for optimizing the application. New records are appended to the local database on internet un-availability and when the transaction per second is very high on cloud db. Is it fine to go with such schema of implementing two database. What might be the possible pros and cons? -

Managing data persistence in django
I'm new to Django and web applications development in general. I want to understand the way django manages data persistence. For example, let's consider the case in which I would have to design a data collection system which should be consulted online, adopting django web framework for back-end. A consistent part of this project would rely on data persistence, so here is the point: I would have to create a database from scratch (using for example SQL) and then connect it whith django, or I could just create classes inside django.db.model module? -

How to find out if there has been new object created in Django?
I have a Post object with comments and I am trying to send ajax requests in a while loop to check if there have been new comments created, and if there were, add them to the DOM. How can you achieve that in django? Here are my models: class Post(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=255) date_added = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) last_modified = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) class PostComment(models.Model): comment = models.TextField() author = models.ForeignKey(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE) post = models.ForeignKey(Post, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='post', related_query_name='post') date_added = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True) last_modified = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True) I have tried to look into channels and web sockets but all the tutorials that I have found use old versions of django and python. So I decided to simply achieve the same with ajax requests in a while loop. I am open to any suggestions about how to achieve my outcome! -

Is it possible to store a class object reference to a Django database (sqlite3 in my case)
I have a class which would connect to an external websocket and parse data from it to thereafter send it to my own websocket. But I'm considering a situation where I would need to, for example, close the connection \ reconnect in case of exceptions \ etc. So, for these purposes I'm wondering whether I can store the reference for an object I've created (which would obviously run continuously in the background to parse data) so that I don't lose the reference itself. I've read that you could create custom database types which would allow to store the class to reconstruct it later but in my case, I need exactly the reference to be stored, because I'll try to access the object's methods such as disconnect() etc. -

How to make a field in django model that is either a value or a foreign key?
I don't know if that is possible, maybe I have to come up with a particular design but I am struggling with the following: These are my models class Rectangle(models.Model): height = models.CharField(max_length=255) width = models.CharField(max_length=255) class Variable(models.Model): name = models.CharField(max_length=255) value = models.CharField(max_length=255) I would like the width and the height to be either a value, or a variable that has the value. For instance, if the user nputs a height that starts with a special character, say "@variablename" it should be able to find and reference the variable, otherwise just save the value if the input was "350" for instance. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance -

Get EB Django site to work on single instance and application load balanced environment
I have a website that I have setup on code pipeline. It has a prod and test environment. To get https redirection to work I included a set of configuration files into the .ebextensions directory of my Django app and I will include a copy of these below. I have found that running two load balanced environments is expensive, so I would love to change my test environment to single instance. I tried this a couple of weeks ago and unfortunately the https redirection configuration file seems to create an error. I assume it is because the file has been written to configure an application load balancer, not a single instance. At present I am using an environment variable to specify if I am in test or production (EnvTyp='test' or EnvType='prod'), so I am wondering if there is a way to change which configuration files you use based upon an environment variable, however I have to say that I am relatively new to EB and AWS and so my knowledge of what these files do is almost non existent. Files: https://github.com/awsdocs/elastic-beanstalk-samples/tree/master/configuration-files/aws-provided/security-configuration/https-redirect/python I have also used some configuration files from the following area: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/elastic-beanstalk-https-configuration/ (eg https-backendsecurity.config, https-lbsecuritygroup.config and https-reencrypt-alb.config) It would … -
