title: Configure Django with MS SQL Server database
body: <p>I'm setting up a <code>Django</code> application and I want to use <code>SQL Server 2012</code> for my database.</p>
  
  <p>To configure my website I'm following <a href="https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.6/topics/install/#database-installation" rel="nofollow">this</a> section of the official Django documentation. </p>
  
  <p>In the section <code>Database setup</code> I found instructions for changing <code>RDBMS</code>.</p>
  
  <p>And in <code>settings.py</code> file I found these instructions for setting up Django with <code>SQlite</code>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>DATABASES = {
  'default': {
      'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.sqlite3',
      'NAME': os.path.join(BASE_DIR, 'db.sqlite3'),
      }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How I can change this configuration to use <code>SQL Server 2012</code> instead?</p>
