Yup.

Having someone implement this would be great!

Note: sync'ing the two databases is going to be difficult.

You are also going to have problems with telling the difference between a
connection A object which has just had problems getting a connection to
database A and a connection B object which is still connected to database A.
In other words, you may end up with accidentally connecting to the database
B when you didn't really need to. The way around this is to attempt to use
up all of the connections to database A before moving on to database B. You
also need something to "reset" the cache so that when database A comes back
up, it will start using it again. A background thread can deal with that.
