Depends on how you looks at it. Arguably python has the best database APIs
anywhere, in any  language, SQLAlchemy. I'm not sure it is the 'best' but
it does seem to work very well in a wide variety of cases. It is probably
the main reason why python's built-in database database API hasn't received
much attention recently.

Anyways, you can find out more about it at its home page or it is eminently
googleable.

PS. Sounds like an interesting system. Please post your progress, I for
one would be interested to see where it goes.
