The following modules will generally help you interact with your database table rows as Perl objects. Some will help you construct SQL, so that you may get away with no-SQL most of the time, including some basic joins. The SQL that they generate will use basic security best practices and save you headaches. Some will help with paging the result sets. Jifty aims to go further and implement half your application for you. The order, from top to bottom, seems to be the general order of preference of wiser monks these days. I only have significant experience with Class::DBI::Sweet, which does all I need, though sometimes you have to bend backwards. Its performance also leaves something to be desired, especially compared to the first two, according to some benchmarks. In my next project, I would probably start with one of the top three.

Cheers.
