Dear List, I came about conflicting information (to my mind) concerning the use of select_related() and prefetch_related(). My question is whether you can combine select_related() and prefetch_related() with sharding techniques. If so, how are you doing it?
Background: I was watching various videos on Django under load and Django scaling, generally there comes a point at which they point at database sharding. Ash Christopher (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frlsGUHYu04) points out that as you use multiple databases with your Application, select_related() and prefetch_related() can no longer be used. In Christophe Pettus' videos I have not found such a comment, in fact select_related() and prefetch_related() seem to be habitually recommended to speed database connections up.
