django with no relational db?

 I am building an app with no relational DB. All data will be in flat files now and nosql dbs in future.

 I plan to use django-tastypie for rest api and mostly pure python from rest api code to connect to file system and non relational backend python api. I do not plan to use Django ORM.

 I will have web pages, d3.js, authenticated users and sessions.

 1) Is it even possible to use Django without relational DB?

 I noticed many of Django's core app like auth and session depend on having relational DB. Am i correct?

 2) Does it even make sense to use Django here? Is Django appropriate technology/framework to use here? or any other python alternatives I should look at?
