Think of DBI, a consistant interface so one can switch databases with minimum effort. Feel like Oracle one week? Postgre the next? That's how it should be designed.

    You still have to port your schema, and if you're doing anything with timestamps or unique identifiers, you'll have some portability work.

    well, doesn't perlmonks access mysql through the dbi?
        • Chromatic is working on SQLite
        • Fuzzie submitted PGsql
        Other thoughts that have been kicked around are Oracle, SapDB, MSSql, etc. There is a lot of work that needs to be done, but we have two people with a proof of concept that it can be done. There is a lot of work. I encourage anyone to take a look at the codebase (http://sourceforge.net/projects/everydevel) and consider contributing.
