Re: PostgresSQL or MySql with django?

Make a +1 for postgres. I like the licensemodel of PG more than the license model of Mysql. There's a big community behind (no big company) and there is only one version. Mysql confuses me with the different versions (MariaDB, MySQL..). Since PG has the Hot-Stream-Feature it became more and more us

Re: PostgresSQL or MySql with django?

They're much of a muchness. I've favoured Postgres because it seems more straightforward as there aren't multiple distributions and crucially multiple storage engines to worry about. In MySQL's favour, Amazon RDS makes it incredibly simple to set up a scalable and reliable database so bear that

Re: PostgresSQL or MySql with django?

I'd add to this that if you are interested in either running with an async worker like gevent or with Python 3 support, MySQL is a no-go. The main MySQL connector, MySQLdb, doesn't yet support Python 3; work is forthcoming in a branch, though no timeline is given. And if you want to have some sort

How to get ten random records

No really, I want a maximum of ten random records from the database (Django 1.4, Postgres 9.1). Looking at the docs this seems to be what I want ... Items.objects.filter(name__icontains=term).order_by('?')[:10] Is there a better way? Would .order_by() be quicker if I wasn't too concerned
