benchmark-django-fastapi VS tortoise-orm

https://github.com/rednaks/django-async-orm/discussions/6

Everything works great if everything is already using the regular threading and asyncio/async methods, or JUST gevent/psycogreen.

The django documentation suggests mounting WSGI into ASGI.

But, it breaks down immediately going between the two paradigms.

I put a little experiment together a bit ago to see what would work in production, and my results.

To do this, we can use the Tortoise-ORM. Begin by installing the package:

If I was answering this question but for python, I'd recommend something like prefect, boto3, or tortoise-orm -- not extremely complex and with a pretty comprehensible featureset.

If you're just starting with relational databases i suggest you use an ORM an object relational mapper. Which allows you to use simple python to make all database interactions. And i recommend using tortoise ORM.

Does anybody have any experience with that? Can I use Django in my asyncio application without *actually using Django? Or should sth like Tortoise ORM be preferred?

Tortoise ORM looks a lot like the django ORM https://tortoise.github.io

Thanks, it's great to see Django adding slowly but surely in all sorts of places.

By the way, have you looked at tortoise orm, which is a fully async python ORM with very Django-like syntax? [1]
