<p>Shian Lerk is privileged to journey with a boutique software engineering team to bring new ideas and accelerate the banking and finance industry. Besides crafting solutions using Django, Celery, and Postgresql, he delights in guiding and journeying with a team of UX/BE developers to deliver innovation and satisfaction to the users.</p>



<p>Being a 6-year old in Python and new kid on the block with Django, Sian Lerk sees much synergy between both traditional and Django ORM. </p>



<p><strong>Topic:</strong> Solving performance issues in Django ORM.</p>



<p>Sian Lerk came late in knowing Django ORM, and he felt in love at first glance. The ease of programmatically defining the schema, straightforward versioning, near no-frills ORM experience, cross-database support and the list goes on.</p>



<p>However, if your boss(es) started to ask about faster API endpoints, one&#8217;s eyes may roll. This is even more evident in his situation, where cross-database support is needed owing to client requirements. So, what can we tell our boss(es)? 😉</p>



<p>Targeting audience with intermediate level of Python knowledge.</p>
