You are probably looking for more detail than "It's a nice framework" :-) The database model in Django is powerful; it allows you to do queries in native Python code without delving into backend SQL stuff. I don't know how scalable/performant the database model is, as the one project I worked on didn't deal with a ton of data. (But I'd be surprised if it had poor performance.) The URL dispatcher provides a very nice and logical way to associate a given URL with a given method call.
