I am considering migrating from Contentful to Sitecore JSS, and I looked into some online articles, but I didn't find any relevant mentions to any migration tool. There were some articles, but mainly on experiences on migrating to Contentful.
I am wondering what is the best possible way to execute this.
Is it somehow serializing the data
Is it creating SQL scripts and importer
some other way maybe?
Are there any things that I am missing out?

Does anyone have experience in this topic? Is it fully incompatible or might it be possible to customize certain parts of the app to make it work.
multi-tenancy is not yet fully supported by Wagtail.
Although, as mentioned here in docs, there are some features that are supported.
You may find this blog helpful. Also here is a repository that implements basic features of multi tenancy with django and wagtail and you can play around with it.
Here are some other CMS (build on top of Django) you can try.
I think as long as there are no raw sql queries in wagtail's source code we are good to use django-tenents, the layer that django-tenets is working on is on top of django orm it self.

Team,
I am a beginner on site core 9.0. We have a requirement to migrate the existing MVC 5.0 application to sitecore 9.0. I am trying to build a POC first by having a basic mvc 5.0 web application having a login page.
May i know step by step process to migrate this to site core 9.0. I have tried all resources...(may be i have missed some) and i am confused.
Can anyone please guide me with proper links/information.
Probably the best way to start is by taking a brief introductory course into Sitecore to learn the terminology and how things are put together. There are also a lot of online resources to help you get started (Google "getting started with Sitecore").
Joining the community (like this one, the one on sitecore.stackexchange.com, Sitecore Slack, Community Forums) will put you in touch with a lot of developers who can help you through your steps as you move piece by piece.
Your particular question here is a little too vague to answer accurately. There are a lot of things that need to be done and it all depends on your scenario and your existing MVC application. It may be more helpful to ask specifics about a particular scenario you are migrating, with code examples, and what you have tried already.
You also need to think about what you are trying to migrate. Are you moving to run off of a Content Delivery server? Or are you building your MVC application to consume Sitecore as a headless application? Those would be two entirely different migration approaches.
For few days I have been searching for a tutorial that shows how MongoDB can be used as a database with Django but resulted in nothing fruitful or clear tutorial. There have been questions regarding this in this forum most of them directed to look up for http://www.django-mongodb.org/ but I find there's something else written. Can anybody suggest me some good tutorial or pointers where I can start with.
P.S. I myself have searched a lot but couldn't find anything that tells the whole procedure.
The main options tu use MongoDB with Django are:
MongoEngine is an ORM for MongoDB with some Django Integration. This will not replace the Django ORM, but you're free not to use it.
Django MongoDB Engine provides a tighter intgration in Django by providing a MongoDB backend to the Django ORM, but requires the use of Django-nonrel, a fork of Django that adds support for non-relational databases.
The Django MongoDB Engine documentation formerly known as http://www.django-mongodb.org/ is now available at https://django-mongodb-engine.readthedocs.org/. For future reference, you can get the previous version of the site using the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.
I am trying to convert an old app-engine-patch project to use the out-of-the-box Django in Google app engine (without the "Cloud SQL" part, because I tried to set that up and it was a pain, and also required 'enabling billing' to try it out).
Are there good docs somewhere on how to write an out-of-the-box Django app on app engine? Possibilities seem to be:
appengine-patch. Old and unsupported since 2009.
google-app-engine-django. Deprecated since 2010.
django-nonrel. No longer supported by its original authors, last check-in is months ago.
Django with Cloud SQL. As I said, a pain to set up, and requires enabling billing to try.
You would think this question or this one or this one are duplicates, but the discussion on there is so old as to be useless.
I encountered the same problem when I recently developed a Django app for GAE. As far as I can tell, the easiest way is to use Django nonrel. The Google App Engine Django tutorial suggests this approach.
Now the second part of your question seems more geared towards long-term support of Django nonrel. You are correct that Django nonrel is no longer being supported. It looks like Google has an article on how to use Cloud SQL with Django, but they caution that Cloud SQL is experimental and subject to change.
Based on all of this information, you are left with a few options.
Use Django nonrel with the understanding that it may not be supported in the future. It is a risk, but the easiest solution if you want to get started quickly.
Use Google's Cloud SQL with Django with the understanding that it is experimental and subject to change.
Use Django, but do not use the ORM layer. This means you cannot take advantage of Django's admin site and a lot of 3rd party tools. This is the least risky if you are worried about long-term support.
I encountered the same difficulties as you. Anyways, as django-nonrel is no longer supported I chose going for Google Cloud SQL, since it has its free trial running until June 1, 2013.
All the current tutorials are for Django-nonrel so new tutorials are missing and setting up Django for Cloud SQL is not so obvious. That's why I decided to write this tutorial myself.
Graph database systems like ne04j seem to becoming very popular of late. I am a newbie user who is trying to set-up a website that needs to display some data which is best displayed using a graph database (essentially i will visualize this on the website).
I am designing this website using CMS Drupal but i am open to changing to other CMS or in worst case a web application framework like Django. Can anyone suggest me a basic template, website or extension to a CMS that enable graph databases or a good way to start learning web app development using graph databases for a noob ?
Well, if you're curious about using Drupal to manage graphs, I'd recommend looking over these contributed modules:
http://drupal.org/project/graphapi
http://drupal.org/project/charts
http://drupal.org/project/views_charts
http://drupal.org/project/charts_graphs
There is http://structr.org/, a CMS built on Neo4j and very Open and capable. Other bindings, you might take a look at REST bindings and neo4j embedded bindings to get going.
If you're looking for even more alternatives for charting in Drupal, then you may want to start from the Comparison of charting module, which includes information and links about quite a lot of charting related modules in Drupal.
If you're aware of other modules not included in it, please update that docu if you can, or let me know about it.
