You can connect to your database using Django but first Django needs to
have a model of each table in your database so it knows what to look
for. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/legacy-databases/

There is a management command which will analyse your database and
automatically create those models.
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/howto/legacy-databases/#auto-generate-the-models

But if you are new to Django it would be best to come up to speed with a
broader knowledge of the way things work. There is an excellent tutorial
... https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.8/ ... which will take you step
by step through the general learning curve.

Welcome and good luck

Mike
