AFAIK there's out there a plently of ``abstraction layer'', as the
first option i think it is better to look at them...


The real question is: we need a ``soft'' abstraction layer, because we
use the DB as a mere data repository and so we need only some cosmetic
changes on query, o we need a ``hard'' abstraction layer, because we
want to use hardly the DB (triggers, referential integrity, ...) and so
we need an abstraction layer that also reimplement some DB logic if not
here?
