This is the port for all stuff that comes in the contrib subtree of
the postgresql distribution. This subtree contains porting tools,
analysis utilities, and plug-in features that are not part of the core
PostgreSQL system, mainly because they address a limited audience or
are too experimental to be part of the main source tree. This does
not preclude their usefulness.
Each subdirectory contains a README file with information about the
module. Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators,
or types. After you have installed the files you need to register the
new entities in the database system by running the commands in the
supplied .sql file. For example,
$ psql -d dbname -f module.sql
The .sql files are installed into /usr/local/share/postgresql/contrib
For more information, please see
/usr/local/share/doc/postgresql/contrib/README*
This software is part of the standard PostgreSQL distribution.
MySQL is a very fast, multi-threaded, multi-user and robust SQL
(Structured Query Language) database server.
MySQLDumper is a PHP and Perl based tool for backing up MySQL databases.
You can easily dump your data into a backup file and, if needed, restore it.
It is especially suited for shared hosting webspaces, where you don't have
shell access. MySQLDumper is an open source project and released under the
GPLv2 license.
The Python SQL Toolkit and Object Relational Mapper
SQLAlchemy is the Python SQL toolkit and Object Relational Mapper that
gives application developers the full power and flexibility of SQL.
It provides a full suite of well known enterprise-level persistence
patterns, designed for efficient and high-performing database access,
adapted into a simple and Pythonic domain language.

iODBC (intrinsic Open Database Connectivity) is an ODBC driver manager that
is compatible with the ODBC 2.x and 3.x specifications. It performs the
standard tasks of a driver manager, i.e. driver loading, parameter and
function sequence checking, driver function invocation, etc.
Applications linked with the iODBC driver manager will be able - through ODBC
function calls - to access simultaneously different types of data sources
within one process through suitable ODBC drivers.
iODBC is freely redistributable under either the GNU Library General Public
Licence (LGPL) or the BSD licence.
SQLObject is an object-relational mapper.
It allows you to translate RDBMS table rows into Python objects,
and manipulate those objects to transparently manipulate the database.
SQLite is an SQL database engine in a C library. Programs that link the SQLite
library can have SQL database access without running a separate RDBMS process.
The distribution comes with a standalone command-line access program (sqlite3)
that can be used to administer an SQLite database and which serves as an
example of how to use the SQLite library.
