External data can be made available by using BCS.

For the cascading dropdowns have a look at SPServices

I saw you put as a keyword Infopath. Your point 2 can be achieved with Infopath easily, see this video which has a guide. If you want other guides, this feature is called "cascading filters". Infopath will still work in SharePoint for some years.

You can also achieve the same by using O365 PowerApps. Here is a guide https://www.itidea.nl/index.php/how-to-create-cascading-drop-downs-using-powerapps/
