I learned a lot by watching this and I highly recommend it but the viewer should be warned that many of the tools and techniques seem to have fallen out of favor in the Django community.
In my personal experience nginx+gunicorn turned out to be much easier to deal with than the reference Apache+mod_wsgi. It also seems to be JKM's current preference. Likewise, buildout, while very powerful can be a bit burdensome, and has fallen out of favor relative to pip+virtualenv.
For more current info, check out this extended chat with JKM and other lead Django developers here:

- colbyolson 16y agoAlso, use PIP and VirtualEnv! Makes deps and packages so easy. Especially with virtualenvwrapper.
- frankwiles 16y agoDefinitely echo pip, virtualenv, and virtualenv-wrapper. They make life so much simpler.
