The answer is not jumping out at me, so I'm going to post it here in
case its a simple answer.

I want to access an existing DB on a remote server using Postgres.  My
boss is not crazy about having Django "polluting" this existing -
large - db with its internal guts.

But I don't see how to specify a SECOND db connection in Django.
There is only one Settings.py file.

Can I instantiate a second connector?  And will doing so allow me to
take advantage of the admin interface?

Or, if I make my own connection, and use Django's db models (assuming
I can even do that without conflict) will I still be able to
"comfortably" program the Django way?

Or maybe if I make a second connection, it has to be all by hand -
using my own classes.  No tie-in to Django's niceties.....

Or is this a "deal breaker"?  Where Django really only works if all
"application" data is in the same db as all "site" data?


Thanks in Advance!
