Leveraging Django 5.1.1 and PostgreSQL 16 for an Efficient Geo-Targeted Rating API

A case study walkthrough of building a geo-targeted rating REST API using Django 5.1.1, Django REST Framework, Python 3.12, and PostgreSQL 16 in a Dockerized environment. The API calculates average ratings between geographical locations (ports and regions) across various combinations. Key highlights include Django 5.1.1 ORM improvements, PostgreSQL 16's Parallel Execution and Bulk Data Loading features, and the overall developer experience of this tech stack.
