Thanks Dieter, I think ZPatterns is certainly worth a look. It allows you to slice-and-dice what you want to store in ZODB or RDBMS. The best part is you can develop totally in ZODB, then migrate to RDB a bit at a time (if you like) without changing your app, or your data classes. We have multiple instance of the same app mixing up ZODB, RDB, LDAP etc.. since all the wiring of data->objects is done in configurable data managers on an instance by instance basis.
