    Umbraco 9 plugin reading data from NoSQL database

    Hey there, I am learning how to develop plugins for Umbraco.

    I followed this tutorial and everything seems to be working just fine.

    However, I found no indication on how to read from a separate database (not the one in use by Umbraco). I would like to keep the SQL database in use by Umbraco separate from the one where I need to store the data to be accessed by my plugin. The request from my client is to use a NoSQL database (Cosmos DB on MS azure, or MongoDB). How can I read from an additional database (NoSQL)? Where should I put the connection string in my plugin? Does anyone have a template, a tutorial, or any indication that might help me?

    Thank you so much in advance...

    I've updated some sample code in the ReadMe file of https://www.nuget.org/packages/UmbracoMongoDbClient

    var database = MongoDBClientConnection.GetDatabase("YouDatabaseName");
    var collection = database.GetCollection<T>("YourCollectionName"); // of type T
