in reply to Returning to Perl, seeking advice on modern DB and format tools
Hi Neil Watson
I have just designed & implemented a secure web service framework based on perl + mod_perl + https + SOAP::Lite + DBI + SQLite.
DBI is great. Production ready. If your DB needs is minimal go for SQLite. Lite weight, server less, super fast DB.
Just in case, if you wanna move to GUI from CLI, Have a look at GTK2, With Glade user interface designer tool you can easily create GUIs.
Thanks & Regards,
Bakkiaraj M
