Is there any way to use both SQL and NO-SQL databases together in Django?

Question

I already have SQLite DB integrated with my web app (using Django web framework) but now I want to add MongoDB for NO-SQL component. Is there any way to use both SQL and NO-SQL together?

Answer 1

Django Models only work with relational databases. There is a GitHub project that was meant to be a MongoDB replacement for Django Model backend, but it is no longer maintained. But there is nothing stopping you from putting python code that carries out CRUD operations with a NO-SQL database server in your Django project. It's just that things like makemigrations and migrate will not work with your NO-SQL DB.
