Django supported alternative to noSQL

Question

We need a reasonable insert and query speed over huge tables so I considered using some noSQL adapter with Django. Unfortunately:

• Django does not provide official support for noSQL databases.
• In our original schema some Big Data are relational to other Big Data making the data duplication unacceptable.
• Project deadlines are enemies of hot stuff like this.

So, as far I can see, PostgreSQL should be the way to go for this scenario, right?!

Please let me know any other detail that may be relevant to this question!

Bonus to anyone that can point out some useful database techniques like database sharding...

Answer 1

Well, there is a fork of django project that uses MongoDb as the backend.You can read about it here . The Code on GitHub is here.You give some heads up, MongoDB is a NOSQL db that does support sharding and replication. So i think this might something that you are looking for.
