Discover the power of Django for building web apps with a database backend. In this session, you'll walk through building a Django app, using SQLTools VS Code extension to interact with a local PostgreSQL database, and deploying it using infrastructure-as-code to Azure App Service with Azure PostgreSQL Flexible Servers.

Session 3: Containerizing Python Web Apps with Docker
Time: 12:50PM PST

Get hands-on experience with Docker containers, the industry standard for packaging applications, in this session on containerizing Python web apps.
