In this article, you'll learn about N+1 queries, how to detect them with AppSignal, and how to fix them to speed up your Django apps significantly. We'll start with the theoretical aspects and then move on to practical examples. The practical examples will mirror scenarios you might encounter in a production environment. Let's get started!

Ever commit code and wonder how it’s faring in the pipeline? Let's make every status update as clear as day. Every time you push new code, a series of automated CI builds and checks spring into action, each telling a part of your project's story. This is where git commit statuses come in—they transform the complex results of these processes into clear, actionable insights. Think of them as real-time signals that indicate whether your code is ready to go live or needs a little more attention.

Efficient handling of asynchronous data streams is an important tool of modern application development. Kotlin Flows, part of the Kotlin Coroutines library, provide a flexible and elegant solution for working with such data streams. Kotlin Flows are part of Kotlin Coroutines – unlike traditional callbacks or RxJava handling, which can be clunkier and may not directly integrate with your existing code structure easily.

Platform engineering is a software development approach that combines DevOps principles to elevate the developer experience. It focuses on designing and constructing toolchains and workflows that promote self-service capabilities for software engineering teams. By addressing security, compliance, and operational efficiency, platform engineering enables organizations to build robust internal systems tailored to the needs of both developers and operations teams.

One of the major challenges in detecting phishing is the limitations at the Internet Service Provider (ISP) level. Traditional tools often lack the visibility and ability to recognize phishing sites in real time, as they mostly rely on network-level information. Phishing schemes frequently use complex, changing tactics, like rotating domains or imitating legitimate sites, which can go unnoticed without a detailed analysis of the site’s content.

Querying databases comes with costs—wall clock time, CPU usage, memory consumption, and potentially actual dollars. As your application scales, optimizing these costs becomes crucial. Materialized views offer a powerful solution by creating a pre-computed, optimized data representation. Imagine a retail scenario with separate customer and product tables. Typically, retrieving product details for a customer's purchase requires cross-referencing both tables.

If you want to run a SaaS app where your customers can each have one of their own domains pointing to your app, then you will encounter two problems: For example, let's say you wanted to provide a status page service hosted at yourapp.com that allows customers to set up their own domain (like status.acmecorp.com) to be served by your app. Let's dive into the solutions..
