title: Django code or MySQL triggers
body: <p>I'm making a web service with Django that uses MySQL database. Clients interface with our database through URLs, handled by Django. Right now I'm trying to create a behavior that automatically does some checking/logging whenever a certain table is modified, which naturally means MySQL triggers. However I can also do this in Django, in the request handler that does the table modification. I don't think Django has trigger support yet, so I'm not sure which is better, doing through Django code or MySQL trigger.</p>
  
  <p>Anybody with knowledge on the performance of these options care to shed some light? Thanks in advance!</p>
