How can I use Django ORM for async queries?

You can use Django's async capabilities with ORM by utilizing the database_sync_to_async utility. This allows you to run ORM queries in an async context.

Can you provide an example of an async query using Django ORM?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

from asgiref.sync import sync_to_async
from myapp.models import MyModel

async def get_objects():
    return await sync_to_async(MyModel.objects.all)()

What are the benefits of using async queries in Django?

Async queries can improve performance by allowing your application to handle multiple requests concurrently, reducing wait times.

Are there any limitations I should be aware of?

Yes, not all Django features are async-compatible, and you may encounter issues with certain database backends or middleware.
