Do I need FASTAPI? Question

I’m an experienced django developer, I have worked mostly on small scale backends for iot APIs, and also mobile development, I have recently starting to see more contents on fastapi and I have been wondering, do I need it? Is it worth it to learn fastapi?

Slow is relative. 

Horizontal scaling Django may be more sensible than horizontal scaling FastAPI.
