It can be done but it needs information about how you can access the data. Is it standardised like REST/SOAP or something? Or do you need hard database access?

In general in CakePHP you build a custom datasource for it: http://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/models/datasources.html or you can work with behaviours which you attach to models.

There are some examples of this approach like this for REST: http://www.neilcrookes.com/2010/06/01/rest-datasource-plugin-for-cakephp/
