How can I do fast search in Django?

Answer 1

If you're already using Django with PostgreSQL the easiest way to improve your search speed and accuracy is to use full-text search with indexes .

You can read about it in the Full text search section of the Django documentation.

If you need a tutorial about the subject you can read the article Full-Text Search in Django with PostgreSQL
