Django deployment can be a painful process that takes time to setup and maintain. DjangoZoom aims to solve this by providing one-click deployments of Django apps to cloud servers, automatically setting up the necessary configurations. This allows for easy and repeatable deployments, as well as a web dashboard to monitor servers, installed apps, and deployment history. By signing up for the beta, users can deploy their Django apps within 5 minutes or less through an automated process that checks out code, configures the database and web server, and sets up DNS records.

2. The problem
• Deploying Django for the first time can be
painful
• Repeatable deployments take time to
architect (i.e. Fabric)
• No automation means releases / updates /
testing / experiments are harder
• Handing off Django code to a customer
without an easy way to deploy can be a PITA
