Course Description

Mastering Django Deployment using Nginx, Ubuntu, and MySQL will be a hands-on tour to convert your Django applications into production-ready solutions. By the end of this course, you will achieve comprehensive knowledge along with practical know-how in safe, scalable, and practical deployments of Django projects. You will acquire skills that will give you the ability to handle deployments with confidence and set up server infrastructures as secure as your codebase can be.

From configuring environment variables and databases to assigning AWS EC2 instances and linking custom domains, all the steps involved in the process of deployment will be carefully created to take your skills to the next level. You will also learn about more advanced topics such as debugging database configurations, permission issues, and common deployment problems such as static file errors. In this course, you will also learn how to add critical security features, which involve setting up free and premium SSL certificates that can protect your apps and your users' data.

The focus here is more on performance optimization and scalability while providing maintenance rather than just a tutorial on the subject of deployment. In other words, it equips you with everything to think like a professional developer. Each process in this workflow is guaranteed to be at your fingertips-from the live production system, the client application, and even personal projects. You would leave this training feeling equipped with confidence in taking Django projects forward and deploying it. It means that you now become a developed developer within that highly competitive world of IT sectors. Join us, and we are starting now on how to deploy Django.
