@vikramcse

Very different.

Ember is client-side. Django is server-side. They’re not mututally exclusive by any means.

Although I’m not part of “Ember Team” I am pretty confident that there is no prescribed recipe for integration. (Even serving to Ember using a nodejs server doesn’t seem to have a firmly established “best practice”, probably because Ember Data is still a work in progress.)

You will want to look at a REST framework for django. I have used [tastypie](https://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) in the past, but there are several frameworks to consider. If you are using Ember Data, then probably you will have to modify the server a bit, as conventions for side-loaded models, etc. are not perhaps so widespread. See [http://emberjs.com/guides/models/the-rest-adapter/](http://emberjs.com/guides/models/the-rest-adapter/) for info on what to serve.

@vikramcse I’m currently using [tastypie](https://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/) with [ember-data-tastypie-adapter](https://github.com/escalant3/ember-data-tastypie-adapter).

Also have a look at this topic [Setting up a Django API to use with Ember.js](http://discuss.emberjs.com/t/setting-up-a-django-api-to-use-with-ember-js/163)
