I need to access data in other databases. I don't want them listed in model.py as I won't be using django's orm for them. Given this, where is the preferred place to put the db connection for this data? The only references I could find show creating a db connection in the view, http://www.djangobook.com/en/beta/chapter05/ -- while valid for my purposes, is there a better place to cache the connection?
Also, I will be accessing 7+ other databases of varying types, some have hundreds of tables and I have no desire to create a model when for them when I only need to get to a few values. I will not be updating data in these other databases, only doing lookups. So I am not interested in making a proper django data connection to them.
