Hi Lois, To expand on what Scott is saying. - model DB tables to store the data you need to render the graphs - build a service to preprocess the data - this service can run periodically depending on how up to date you need the graphs to be (a microservice) - build a single endpoint to simple fetch the data the graphs need (Django) if this is a monolith the normal Django views should do the trick
