You may want to look at the Python DB API which is a database abtrsaction layer in its second version
This has been around for a while. haven't used it as I do most of my Python DB interfacing via ZSQL methods in Zope.

That's right.  There really is no canonical database abstraction layer
for Python relational database adapters that I've seen.  I think the
best you can do is either code to the lowest-common-denominator SQL
dialect (probably impossible) or code for as many databases as you need.

I'm looking for a DAL to use with Python but can't find any.
There seems to be adapters for a range of sql servers, but not one which
unifies the interfaces; sql syntax varies with each server (fx LIMIT and
TOP).
