This includes most class instances, recursive data types, and objects containing lots of shared sub-objects. The keys are ordinary strings. |

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.
