Out of the box database support

[Alex Biddle]

Hey there.

I was wondering whether Python had any support out-of-the-box for
database functionality, or database-like functionality.

For instance a lot of shared hosts have Python installed, but not the
MySQL extension, the flexible of these would install it, but most of
the time they wouldn't bother.

I was really looking for something like SQLite which ships bundled
with PHP these days. Or any standard way of connecting to generic
databases out of the box, i.e. MySQL.


Thanks for reading.
