    To connect to an external DB, create a connection by instantiating a new wpdb class object. You can use this object’s methods to query your DB. The global $wpdb object is of this class and is how WP queries its DB.

    To invoke a custom registration scheme, I would look at redirecting the usual registration POST request with user data to a custom registration handler. One way to handle a custom registration request is to redirect through /wp-admin/admin-post.php with an “action” parameter. Your custom code then hooks into an action tag composed in part from the passed “action” parameter.
