| 5 | My proposition was to use some connector lib that is compatable with all |
| 6 | those db formats. so you don't have to re-write a bunch of backend |
| 7 | drivers or DB specific queries. Im not a python programmer C/Perl are my |
| 8 | main forte, and you can use DBI to interface with many many db's as long |
| 9 | as you keep your queries db agnostic, and use the dbi methods. At least |
| 10 | with postgresql, mysql, and oracle to (some extent) this is the case. |
