Editing custom tables in an external database in the backoffice?

Hi,

I have an external database that has a table with the following structure:

product_id | name | image_url

I usually use the media section to upload images, but I need to be able to relate images to specific product id’s from the external database. Is this still possible with the media section or do I need to have a custom section where a user can manage these images? Is there a package that I can possibly use for this as well?
