SQLAlchemy and django, is it production ready?

Question

Has anyone used SQLAlchemy in addition to Django\'s ORM?

I\'d like to use Django\'s ORM for object manipulation and SQLalchemy for complex

Answer 1

What I would do,

1. Define the schema in Django orm, let it write the db via syncdb. You get the admin interface.

2. In view1 you need a complex join

    def view1(request):
       import sqlalchemy
       data = sqlalchemy.complex_join_magic(...)
       ...
       payload = {'data': data, ...}
       return render_to_response('template', payload, ...)
