About the Course

Working with databases is a key skill for developers, especially those in Back-End, Full Stack, and DevOps roles. This course will teach you the fundamentals of relational databases and how to access them from your applications. Some of the essential application development tasks include accessing, processing, and presenting data. Data is stored in various databases, either on-premise or on the cloud, and developers will need to learn how to talk to them via programming languages. In this course, you’ll learn about foundational database concepts, and basics of SQL, a simple and powerful programming language used for managing data. In addition to SQL, you will discover how Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) allows you to use Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) languages like Python to work with databases. You will gain full-stack Django skills by creating a Django web app to persist, process, and present data. And you will get hands-on experience deploying your Django web app on the cloud. Throughout this course you will practice with hands-on labs. You will also complete a final project at the end of the course to demonstrate what you have learnt and have a great addition to your portfolio!...

The gap between the taught material and the tasks in the end assignment is too broad. If you are doing this course for the specialisation, I strongly recommend learning Django somewhere else and then doing this course (like the Django website for instance).

This is another course where the front end aspects of the full stack specialisation could do with reviewing and perhaps re-doing to ensure what is being asked for in the end assignment has been properly discussed in the course material.

I should give 2 stars because there were lack of support from the instructors side also the IBM Lab Environment always have bugs which caused most of the students to lost momentum and eventually drop the course.

IBM, please improve your support service. Stop making templated/scripted response to students posting questions in Forums. It gives us the impression that you don't care about us.

The only reason why I'm giving this 5 stars is because I've learned a lot. But in reality, this doesn't deserve 5 stars because of the poor support and poor lab.

The peer-graded assignment system is flawed. I waited for over a week for someone to grade my final product. That is time lost

Work is googling and searching answers but when I take a course, I expect, that I don't have to google the things in the course to learn. Robo-voice videos and messy labs. I got through the final lab with the help from high quality and free Django video-series in Youtube.

SQL development is one of the most interesting applications; it requires attentions to details in order to successfully run newly created applications.

this educational material is totally insufficient to get the knowledge and skills to develop applications. you just copy scripts without understanding how they should work. so after it I can't imagine how I should write my own code. there has to be some explanation why I should write this particular thing, how it works, so that I can then set it up properly. I know I can use other sources for a better understanding. But why should I pay money to Coursera?

I do enjoy this course. The balance between the labs and video lectures is just right. There are many hands on labs in this module and they are very practical. The course is packed with information and practical guide.

The exam is challenging. I did learn a lot and it did well in terms of wrap up the whole course and difficulty level.

Think that the course should be improved because there are lot of things that are not explain sufficiently to develop the final project.

The course itself was good overall. It thoroughly walks you through the complete Django Python stack all the way to deployment to production. The final project is the most flexible project so far out of all of the IBM Full-Stack Cloud Developer Certification, where you actually need to add new features without much help other than a couple of small hints. The only thing keeping it from being 5 star is the employment of the Theia lab environment. There was a maintenance that kept it down for a couple of weeks, and there are some bugs that prevent you from completing some labs.

I'm delighted to have this course offered on Django through Coursera ... I appreciate the format and setup of the course. The videos are very well done. A helpful aspect is that you can save notes, repeat parts of the vids, and have written text to follow if you like

Very complete and concise course. Happy with the last update. I was struggling with the completion of the final project before the update. I wonder if it would be possible to have the possibility to reduce the speed of the videos in sequences of -0.15x instead of -0.25. Once again, many thanks to the team who put together this course.
