Tablespaces 

class TablespaceExample(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField(max_length=30, db_index=True, db_tablespace="indexes")
    data = models.CharField(max_length=255, db_index=True)
    shortcut = models.CharField(max_length=7)
    edges = models.ManyToManyField(to="self", db_tablespace="indexes")

    class Meta:
        db_tablespace = "tables"
        indexes = [models.Index(fields=['shortcut'], db_tablespace='other_indexes')]
the tables generated by the TablespaceExample model (i.e. the model table and the many-to-many table) would be stored in the tables tablespace. The index for the name field and the indexes on the many-to-many table would be stored in the indexes tablespace. The data field would also generate an index, but no tablespace for it is specified, so it would be stored in the model tablespace tables by default. The index for the shortcut field would be stored in the other_indexes tablespace.

A common paradigm for optimizing performance in database systems is the use of tablespaces to organize disk layout.
