No it isn't - but that's fine, that's exactly why Django allows (and encourages) you to roll your own SQL when you need to: http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model_api/#executing- custom-sql My philosophy with respect to the Django ORM (and ORMs in general) is that it should be used strictly for convenience - it should make the usual dull collection of queries as simple as possible. If the ORM is ever less convenient than writing a raw SQL query, write a raw SQL query! As long as you keep all of the SQL interactions in your Django model classes your database logic will all be in the same place and maintenance should be simple.
