John/Rose, With Drupal 7, the module John pointed to was the module to use. With Drupal 8, I have no idea.

I'm not familiar with Drupal beyond simple experimentation a few years ago, but that's how I'd build it - make a connector and consume the returned data (json, xml, whatever) and then turn it into Drupal-formatted html or something similar. I think you might want to pursue the particulars on the Drupal list (I assume one exists...) HTH....
