Hello all,

I was discussing the topic with a couple of my friends that Django's ORM is 
/ is not tightly coupled with databases in general. My point of view was 
that django is not tightly coupled because you can write custom DB backends 
to deal with other sources of data such as a Restful API service while 
still taking advantage of the ORM.
However, looking at the current architecture & implementation, i guess i 
can say that it is coupled because writing a custom backend would require 
you to write database-specific classes such as the DatabaseWrapper, 
Operations, Features .. etc.

Is wiring Django's ORM with a Restful API service rather than MySQL or 
Postgresql a good idea? or the better one would be writing ORMs from 
scratch that are API-based rather than database-driven? 

Please share with me your thoughts on this topic.

Regards,
Rakan
