There are two extensions that you can use to provide to your FE users 
the possibility to write comments to your pages: flexiblecomments and 
sk_pagecomments. Both of this two extensions save the comments in the 
TYPO3 db so, if you want to store the comments in a different db, you 
may need to use DBAL.

Another possibility is to use the DB Integration (wfqbe) extension. This 
extension allows you to connect to any db you need and to retrieve and 
display data in your FE with an easy QBE wizard. It's also possible to 
provide an insert form to allow your users to insert records in your 
external db (also in this case it's available an easy wizard). I think 
you can obtain what you need with this extension and without the need to 
write any PHP code.
