The Philosophy of Channels ( Django Channels ) async,channels I've not been as proactive as I could have been at communicating my reasoning and long-term vision for what Channels could do; I'm hoping this blog post will rectify some of that.

Worthy Read   Wrangling Celery Workflow We use Celery to define and process our tasks, backed by RabbitMQ as our task queue. Celery is quite powerful, but as Rover has scaled we’ve encountered some difficulties managing its complexity. Many of our tasks trigger other tasks; a complete workflow may involve dozens of tasks triggered from all over our codebase. Each of these tasks emits specific logging information (along with Celery’s own internal logging), which we aggregate in a single searchable location. However, these log records are interspersed among all of our application’s other logging, which is quite extensive. We use a pool of workers, so the log entries won’t be in any kind of sensible order. Worse, there’s no way to associate log entries from one task to another in the same workflow.   Speed up Django transaction hooks tests django-transactions-hooks was merged to Django core in 1. 9 release.

Comparing Wagtail, Django CMS and Mezzanine video, cms Django CMS, Mezzanine and Wagtail are the three most popular Django-based content management systems; all three have kept (or, in Wagtail's case, gained) their popularity because they are so different to each other.
