This page seems to duplicate ChoosingDatabase, wouldn't it be better to merge shelve and the rest there? -- DanielDittmar DateTime(2003-02-11T23:15:22)
I don't think so. Now they surely have to be refactored both, but ChoosingDatabase seems to be a good page for one place for categorized comparision to narrow novice's choice while that is merely a catalog. -- MikeRovner DateTime

DBMS interfaces
Things you connect to.
Take a look at http://www.python.org/topics/database/modules.html and http://dmoz.org/Computers/Programming/Languages/Python/Modules/Databases_and_Persistence/.
MySQL
mysqldb module http://www.mysql.com/downloads/api-python.html
PostgreSQL

Oracle

- cxOracle
Sybase
module developed by Dave Cole http://www.object-craft.com.au/projects/sybase/
MSSQL
BerkeleyDb
Native Python Databases
gadfly
Gadfly is a simple relational database system implemented in Python based on the SQL Structured Query Language. Currently use C-extension module for speed. Pure Python version included. http://gadfly.sourceforge.net/
ZODB
http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB Zope Object DB
shelve
A [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-shelve.html shelf] is a persistent, dictionary-like object. The difference with dbm databases is that the values (not the keys!) in a shelf can be essentially arbitrary Python objects -- anything that the [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-pickle.html pickle] module can handle. This includes most class instances, recursive data types, and objects containing lots of shared sub-objects. The keys are ordinary strings.
Datafiles interfaces
Things you open.
xBase
Which stands for .dbf files interface.BR .bdf files were produced by several old systems like dBase(II,III,IV), Fox(Base,Pro)
xBase (http://linux.techass.com/projects/xdb/) - Python interface in plans
dbm
A family of old unix plain hash tables. Has varieties like dbm, ndbm, gdbm, dbmdb185.BR See [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-anydbm.html anydbm], [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-dumbdbm.html dumbdbm], [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-dbhash.html dbhash], [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-bsddb.html bsddb], [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-dbm.html dbm], [http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-gdbm.html gdbm] in Python Standard Library.
MetaKit

SQLite
Actualy it's a full-fleged SQL server, but embeddable. No external SQL server required. Think of Gadfly, only faster. http://PySQLite.sf.net
