Does drupal has the limitation of converting a existing web site driven by database (php/mysql) with all existing functionality side.
Does it only do the static content generation and subsequent managing with powerful features.
Are there web sites which are php/mysql database driven and functionalities executed in OOP concept , be able to be converted to drupal with much less effort.
Is it practicable and wise to do this conversion.
Expert Opinion required

yes ...
You can convert complete php/mysql based site into a drupal based website.

does it require each module for each functionality
For a database functionality to be converted to drupal, should each action be made as each module.
I mean registration as a module, search registered users as a seperate module, posting as seperate module, like that.
Can you please explain more clearly.
But How to make a start
But Sree, Can you tell me how to make a start for this...
detailed req list ....
Drupal already handles few functionalities in form of modules ....
1st list the detailed requirement of your present site then try to match it with drupal based modules ....

A very good way to confirm this is to use some hands on it.
I would suggest that you should list out all your requirements and then try them first on your local site in Drupal. If it fulfills all your requirement then use it.
