Hey Alex,

> repository? If so, how?

in general you can do inside your repository whatever you like. You can 
read, write and map data from a CSV file, a webservice, a external DB or 
whatever, but there is no API available to do so. So you have to 
implement that stuff on your own (establishing the connection to the 
external DB, quering for results etc).

What was your intention? Simply switching the storageBackend of the 
repository and keep using extbases QOM? That's not possible ATM.
