<h1>Databases</h1>
<p>A database is an abstraction on top of an operating system's file system to
ease creating, reading, updating, and deleting persistent data. </p>
<h2>Why are databases necessary?</h2>
<p>At a high level web applications store data and present it to users in a
useful way. For example, Google stores data about roads and provides
directions to get from one location to another by driving through the
<a href="https://www.google.com/maps/">Maps</a> application. Driving directions are
possible because the data is stored in a structured way. </p>
<p>Databases make structured storage reliable and fast. They also give you a
mental framework for how the data should be saved and retrieved instead of
having to figure out what to do with the data every time you build a new
application.</p>
<h2>Relational databases</h2>
<p>The database storage abstraction most commonly used in Python web development
is sets of relational tables. Alternative storage abstractions are explained
in the <a href="../no-sql-datastore.html">NoSQL</a> section of this guide.</p>
<p>Relational databases store all data in a series of tables. Interconnections
between the tables are specified as <em>foreign keys</em>.</p>
<p>Databases storage implementations vary in complexity. SQLite, a database
included with Python, creates a single file for all data per database.
Other databases such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL have more complicated
persistence schemes while offering additional advanced features that are
useful for web application data storage.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.postgresql.org/">PostgreSQL</a> and
<a href="http://www.mysql.com/">MySQL</a> are two of the most common open source
databases for storing Python web application data.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.sqlite.org/">SQLite</a> is a database that is stored in a single
file on disk. SQLite is built into Python but is only built for access
by a single connection at a time. Therefore is highly recommended to not
<a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/databases/#database-is-locked-errors">run a production web application with SQLite</a>.</p>
<h2>PostgreSQL</h2>
<p>PostgreSQL is the recommended relational database for working with Python
web applications. PostgreSQL's feature set, active development and stability
contribute to its usage as the backend for millions of applications live
on the Web today.</p>
<h3>PostgreSQL resources</h3>
<ul>

<p>This post on

PostgreSQL content from around the web.</p>

<p>This article explains how and why PostgreSQL can handle <a href="http://blog.lostpropertyhq.com/postgres-full-text-search-is-good-enough/">full text searching</a>
for many use cases.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>MySQL</h2>
<p>MySQL is another viable open source database backend option for Python web
applications. MySQL has a slightly easier initial learning curve than
PostgreSQL. The database is deployed in production at some of the highest
trafficked sites such as
<a href="https://blog.twitter.com/2012/mysql-twitter">Twitter</a>,
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/notes/facebook-engineering/mysql-and-database-engineering-mark-callaghan/10150599729938920">Facebook</a>
and <a href="http://www.mysql.com/customers/">many others major organizations</a>.
However, since the company focused on MySQL development,
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MySQL_AB">MySQL AB</a>, was
purchased by Sun Microsystems (which was in turn purchased by Oracle), there
have been major defections away from the database by
<a href="http://www.zdnet.com/wikipedia-moving-from-mysql-to-mariadb-7000008912/">Wikipedia</a>
and <a href="http://readwrite.com/2013/09/14/google-waves-goodbye-to-mysql-in-favor-of-mariadb">Google</a>.
MySQL remains a viable database option but I always recommend new Python
developers learn PostgreSQL if they do not already know MySQL.</p>
<h3>MySQL resources</h3>

is a blog post about specific deficiencies in MySQL's implementation that

the data with Plotly.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Connecting to a database with Python</h2>
<p>To work with a relational database using Python, you need to use a code
library. The most common libraries for relational databases are:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><a href="http://initd.org/psycopg/">psycopg2</a> for PostgreSQL</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="https://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/1.2.4">MySQLdb</a> for MySQL</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="http://cx-oracle.sourceforge.net/">cx_Oracle</a> for Oracle</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>SQLite support is built into Python 2.7+ and therefore a separate library
is not necessary. Simply "import sqlite3" to begin interfacing with the
single file-based database.</p>
<h2>Object-Relational Mapping</h2>
<p>Object-relational mappers (ORMs) allow developers to access data from a
backend by writing Python code instead of SQL queries. Each web
application framework handles integrating ORMs differently. </p>
<p>Django provides an ORM with its core functionality. Flask leaves using an
ORM up to an extension, such as
<a href="http://pythonhosted.org/Flask-SQLAlchemy/">Flask-SQLALchemy</a>. </p>
<p>Developers can also use ORMs without a web framework, such as when
creating a data analysis tool or a batch script without a user interface.
Currently, the most widely used stand-alone ORM written for Python is
<a href="http://www.sqlalchemy.org/">SQLAlchemy</a>.</p>
<p>If you're interested in the differences between SQLAlchemy and the Django
ORM I highly recommend reading
<a href="http://lucumr.pocoo.org/2011/7/19/sqlachemy-and-you/">SQLAlchemy and You</a>
by Armin Ronacher.</p>
<h2>Database third-party services</h2>
<p>Numerous companies run scalable database servers as a hosted service.
Hosted databases can often provide automated backups and recovery,
tightened security configurations and easy vertical scaling, depending on the
provider.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><a href="http://aws.amazon.com/rds/">Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS)</a>
provides pre-configured MySQL and PostgreSQL instances. The instances can
be scaled to larger or smaller configurations based on storage and performance
needs.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="https://developers.google.com/cloud-sql/">Google Cloud SQL</a> is a service
with managed, backed up, replicated, and auto-patched MySQL instances. Cloud
SQL integrates with Google App Engine but can be used independently as well.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><a href="http://www.gobitcan.com/">BitCan</a> provides both MySQL and MongoDB hosted
databases with extensive backup services.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2>Database resources</h2>
<ul>
<li>

<h2>Databases learning checklist</h2>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Install PostgreSQL on your server. Assuming you went with Ubuntu run
<code>sudo apt-get install postgresql</code>.</p>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Make sure the <a href="http://initd.org/psycopg/">psycopg2</a> library is part of your
application dependencies.</p>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Configure your web application to connect to the PostgreSQL instance.</p>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Create models in your ORM, either with Django's
<a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/db/">built-in ORM</a> or
<a href="http://www.sqlalchemy.org/">SQLAlchemy with Flask</a>. </p>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Sync the ORM models with the PostgreSQL instance.</p>
<p><i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i>
Start creating, reading, updating and deleting data in the database from your
web application.</p>
