Answer 1

To connect to a database, you just need a database driver (client) to communicate with your database. If you want to host this in the 'cloud', you will need to do the following:

1. decide on the type of database (sql/nosql)
2. decide whether you are going to host it in the cloud (rackspace, amazon, etc), or use a hosted service ( https://cloud.google.com/sql/ , object rocket, etc, etc)
3. then connect to it via your db driver

It usually makes most sense to locate your db & web pages close together (same hosting provider) or at least the same country of hosting.

Sorry this is so broad, your question is too broad to do much more than provide pointers where to start.
