You need to define your project more precisely. Zope does
RDB-connections and there are numerous high-level packages to make it
easy and transaction-safe.

That said, I'm sure there's a benefit in having a grokkish approach to
setting it up. Did you have something like sqlalchemy ind mind?

Or is this perhaps related to a nozodb-setup?
