Can I use redis as a django database for some of my models? I'm aware (and using) caching with django and redis, but I'm looking for something else here: Something I can use at least some of the orm features with, handle a django Model, etc.  I found django-redis-engine but it doesn't look like an active project (pre alpha commits 3 years ago) and django-nonrel which doesn't support redis and is actually a django fork and not Django proper. Any ideas how to proceed from here? Thanks!
