I would appreaciate any comments about if Django is a good framework of developing an application like is described below. If it is a good framework for this I would appreciate pointers to applicable documentation or examples.
In the near future I will be developing an application that will be used as a tool for doing the electrical engineering for making electrical power transformers. Individuals from other parts of the company will have to access parts but not all of system. Anyway here are the details 1. An electrical engineer will log into the system, access one of several design programs and after completing a few forms submit for the program to perform iterations. Output will be saved to a database and portions of the output will be published to other parts of the company. I have libraries in python for doing most of the engineering part of this work right now. It could take several minutes for each transformer design to run making the iterations. 2. Managers will login the system to run reports. Few items if any can be changed by management but they will do a number of reports. Django's CRUD system looks very promising to me for this part. 3. Purchasing agents will update prices for components and get reports of requirements for recently released jobs. 4. Authentication by person and role will be very important. 5. The deployment will be on an intranet initially but web access in the future would be a great asset thus my interest in using a web framework. Most of the examples I have seen for Django seem to focus on custom CMS type applications. Atleast the engineering function described above is more of a servlet (although a big one) type application. Any suggestions or pointers would be appreciated.
