Starting point for learning about using databases from Python.

Relational Databases

Relational databases are the most widely used type of database, storing information as tables containing a number of rows.

DatabaseInterfaces -- List of available Python databases interfaces. This also helps you choose the right database for your application.

The DB-API

The DB-API is a specification for a common interface to relational databases. The current version of the specification is version 2.0.
