Assuming you can access to that DB from AEM (via java) you should be achieve it via custom auth handler

Here is the sling doc: Apache Sling :: Form Based AuthenticationHandler

Apache Sling :: Authentication - AuthenticationHandler

Here is the sample code: acs-aem-samples/SampleLoginHookAuthenticationHandler.java at aem6.3 · Adobe-Consulting-Services/acs-aem-samples · GitHub

Best practice is to port the users into AEM and then write a login component -as discussed here:

Creating a Login Component for the Experience Manager Toy Store

Or you can write a custom authentication handler:
