Connecting to an established MS SQL database

[David McDonald]

Hello, I am very new to Django and have an idea for an application at work.

We have an already established MS SQL database, that I have a read only user for.

Is there any way I can connect to this database and retrieve data from it, once I have retrieved it, I would like to connect to another MS SQL database and perform some actions on the data so this new database may be queried via a website.

Is the above even possible?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Dave

There are django-mssql and django_pyodbc but I was never able to get
either of those to work for me. I ended up using odbc - I couldn't use
the ORM, but I still was able to connect to the MSSQL DB from my
django app using raw queries.
