As long as you use some module that speaks the Python Database API
(PEP 249, if a quick Google search has given me the right number), use
whatever talks to the database back-end you want - all your code will
be basically the same. Are you starting a completely new project and
creating its database? Go with SQLite or PostgreSQL (the former if
your needs are simple, the latter if you want a full-featured database
engine); both are open source and excellent. Are you connecting to an
existing database? Use that database engine, obviously :)
