title: How can I use an existing MS SQL database into new Ruby on Rails project?
body: <p>I'm currently learning  to code in Ruby on Rails but I already worked with this framework in an earlier job as QA. At this point I already know some stuff of ActiveRecord, perform migrations with rake db:migrate, etc. I also managed how to install an adapter for Microsoft SQL Server and ran some rake tasks like <code>rake test</code> or <code>rake db:migrate</code> (db: create doesn't work with current adapter, but that's another story) I already know that MS SQL Server doesn't play nice with RoR, but we already have in production that RDBMS that we use.</p>
  
  <p>Should I ignore migration files and don't execute never a rake db:migrate or whatsoever  in production? What is the best approach?</p>
