ActiveRecord is a Ruby-on-Rails concept, although there are parallel ideas in any Object-Relational-Mapper, of which SQLObject and SQLAlchemy are two. There are not predefined views based on these in Pylons. You can certainly write an application that uses an ORM for database access, but this isn't required. Or these special functions are based on Python's DB2? DB-API 2 is simply a standard on which python interacts with a database. It defines the classes and their members that each database module must supply. ORMs are often built on top of the DB-API compatible modules. I'm not sure because I'm lama in this "makewebframework" theme... :-( Unfortunately, if you want to get anything done, you will probably want to actually pick one up and start using it. There really isn't much of a shortcut to learning them other than lots of documentation reading combined with a fair bit of trial (and, often, error).
