JDBC resource cleanup code is mundane, error prone work so these classes
abstract out all of the cleanup tasks from your code leaving you with what
you really wanted to do with JDBC in the first place: query and update data.

DBIx::Class::Schema by scanning table schemas and setting up columns and
primary keys.
DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader supports MySQL, Postgres, SQLite and DB2.
See DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Generic for more, and
DBIx::Class::Schema::Loader::Writing for notes on writing your own
db-specific subclass for an unsupported db.
This module requires DBIx::Class 0.05 or later, and obsoletes
DBIx::Class::Loader for DBIx::Class version 0.05 and later.

DBIx::Sequence - A simple SQL92 ID generator
This module is intended to give easier portability to Perl
database application by providing a database independant
unique ID generator. This way, an application developer
is not bound to use his database's SEQUENCE or auto_increment
thus making his application portable on multiple database
environnements.
This module implements a simple Spin Locker mechanism and
is garanteed to return a unique value every time it is
called, even with concurrent processes. It uses your database
for its state storage with ANSI SQL92 compliant SQL. All
SQL queries inside DBIx::Sequence are pre cached and very
efficient especially under mod_perl.

DBIx::Abstract - DBI SQL abstraction.
This module provides methods for doing manipulating database tables
This module provides methods retrieving and storing data in SQL
databases. It provides methods for all of the more important SQL
commands (like SELECT, INSERT, REPLACE, UPDATE, DELETE).
It endeavors to produce an interface that will be intuitive to those
already familiar with SQL.
Notable features include:
* data_source generation for some DBD drivers.
* Can check to make sure the connection is not stale and reconnect
if it is.
* Controls statement handles for you.
* Can delay writes.
* Generates complex where clauses from hashes and arrays.
* Shortcuts (convenience functions) for some common cases. (Like
select_all_to_hashref.)

PBL (Peter Graf's Program Base Library) is a library with highly portable
database functions that can be used in a C or C++ project.
The code of the PBL library includes:
- PBL BASE - some base functions (pbl_*)
- PBL HASH - a memory hash table implementation (pblHt*)
- PBL KEYFILE - a key file implementation (pblKf*)
- PBL ISAM - an ISAM file implementation (pblIsam*)
The spamprobe project (mail/spamprobe) can be used with PBL databases.

DBI. From its description ...
Query preparation and execution are combined in a single method, the result
object (which is a wrapper around the statement handle) provides easy
row-by-row and slurping methods.
The "query" method returns either a result object, or a dummy object. The
dummy object returns undef (or an empty list) for all methods and when used in
boolean context, is false. The dummy object lets you postpone (or skip) error
checking, but it also makes immediate error check simply " $db->query(...) or
die $db->error".

The new release includes performance improvements and advanced SQL
features which will support bigger data warehouses, higher-volume
transaction processing, and more complex distributed enterprise
software.
Major new features in this release include:
Roles:
PostgreSQL now supports database roles, which simplify the
management of large numbers of users with complex
overlapping database rights.
IN/OUT Parameters:
PostgreSQL functions now support IN, OUT and INOUT
parameters, which substantially improves support of complex
business logic for J2EE and .NET applications.
Two-Phase Commit (2PC):
Long in demand for WAN applications and heterogeneous data
centers using PostgreSQL, this feature allows
ACID-compliant transactions across widely separated
servers.
Some Performance Enhancements found in this release include:
Improved Multiprocessor (SMP) Performance:
The buffer manager for 8.1 has been enhanced to scale almost
linearly with the number of processors, leading to significant
performance gains on 8-way, 16-way, dual-core, and multi-core
CPU servers.
Bitmap Scan:
Indexes will be dynamically converted to bitmaps in memory when
appropriate, giving up to twenty times faster index performance
on complex queries against very large tables.
Table Partitioning:
The query planner is now able to avoid scanning whole sections
of a large table using a technique known as Constraint
Exclusion.
Shared Row Locking:
PostgreSQL's "better than row-level locking" now supports even
higher levels of concurrency through the addition of shared
row locks for foreign keys.

Release Notes visible at:

With Glom you can design table definitions and the relationships
between them, plus arrange the fields on the screen. You can edit
and search the data in those tables, and specify field values in
terms of other fields. It's as easy as it should be.
The design is loosely based on FileMaker Pro, with the added
advantage of separation between interface and data. Its simple
framework should be enough to implement most database
applications. Without Glom these systems normally consist of lots
of repetitive, unmaintainable code.
Glom-specific data such as the relationship definitions is saved
in the Glom document. Glom re-connects to the database server
when it loads a previous Glom document. The document is in XML
format.
Glom uses the PostgreSQL database backend but it can not edit
databases that it did not create, because it uses only a simple
subset of Postgres functionality.
