This page lists database interfaces available for Python. It may also help in finding a suitable database engine for you to use in your Python database applications.

Generic Database Interfaces and APIs

  • The Python standard for database interfaces is the Python DB-API (PEP 249) Most Python database interfaces adhere to this standard.

  • Most databases have ODBC support; see the section below on ODBC modules.
  • Java databases usually support JDBC, and can be used from Jython.
  • See also DbApiModuleComparison
