## Django SmartCache – Intelligent Query & Response Caching Middleware.

Hello, I am **Aditya Kasture**. I have good hand in **Django development** and have experience with **Django ORM, caching, and real-time applications (Django Channels)**.

I am interested in contributing to Django in **Google Summer of Code 2025** and would love your feedback on my proposal before submitting it officially.

### **Project Proposal: Django SmartCache**

Django applications often suffer from **redundant database queries** and slow API response times due to a lack of **efficient caching mechanisms**.

This project aims to improve **performance, scalability, and efficiency** in Django applications by offering an easy-to-use caching layer.

* * *

### How It Works

1. **Middleware-Based Response Caching**

2. **Django ORM Query Caching**

3. **Pluggable Cache Backends**

* * *

### **Resources & Code**

I will soon provide my GitHub link for the code.

* * *

### **Questions for the Django Community**

1. Does Django currently have plans for **improving caching strategies** that might overlap with this?
2. Any feedback or suggestions to improve the proposal before submitting it to GSoC?

* * *

### **Thank You!**

I appreciate any feedback or suggestions! Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.  
To be honest I have taken help from AI for writing this post.

Best,  
Aditya Kasture
