Question

Is that possible to have model with foreign key fields on different databases?
example:

class MultiBDModel(models.Model):
    db1_user = models.ForeignKey(User) # here suppose to be foreign key on `db1`
    db2_user = models.ForeignKey(User) # and here on `db2`

maybe copy somehow User. Apply for it custom manager. Which returns query set with using=’db1′

in settings.py:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'.
        'NAME': 'db1',                      # Or path to database file if using sqlite3.
        'USER': '',                      # Not used with sqlite3.
        'PASSWORD': '',                  # Not used with sqlite3.
        'HOST': '',                      # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
        'PORT': '',                      # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.
    },

    'website': {
        'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3', # Add 'postgresql_psycopg2', 'postgresql', 'mysql', 'sqlite3' or 'oracle'.
        'NAME': 'db2',                      # Or path to database file if using sqlite3.
        'USER': '',                      # Not used with sqlite3.
        'PASSWORD': '',                  # Not used with sqlite3.
        'HOST': '',                      # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
        'PORT': '',                      # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.              # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.
    }
}

No. The ORM cannot do anything the database engine isn’t capable of.
