[FLOW3-general] Disable Persistence and communicate directly with MySQL.

Hi All,

I'm just getting started with Flow3. The plan is to develop a front end 
for an existing project that already has a functional database.

My understanding of the Persistence Framework is that it will 
manage/create the database tables according to the Objects in my 
application. This is unsuitable as the database is already constructed 
and being used by another application.

I have previously used CodeIgniter, which uses models to communicate 
with the db. Typically, there was a model for each table, then, each 
model had many functions for querying/updating the database.

Is it possible to do this with Flow3?

Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Regards,
Conor
