 Efficient database querying is crucial for optimizing the performance of Django applications. Annotation, select_related, and prefetch_related are powerful tools provided by Django's ORM to achieve this goal. In this article, we'll delve into the usage of annotation and provide guidance on when to combine it with select_related and prefetch_related for optimal query performance. Understanding Annotation Annotation is a feature in Django ORM that allows you to add computed fields to querysets. These computed fields are not stored in the database but are calculated on-the-fly during query execution. When to Use Annotation Annotation is useful when you need to perform calculations or aggregate values from related models without modifying the database schema. It's commonly used for generating aggregated statistics, adding calculated properties, or retrieving values from related models. Code Example Consider the following models: To annotate the average number of pages for each...
