I have used SQLite in both perl and ruby using the dbi
It is a very nice little database, it is very very fast.
And another thing I like is that it is TYPELESS.
You can create a table like this:

create table xyzzy (a, b, c);
it makes no real difference what a b or c are.
everything is a string with only 1 exception.

however 1 caveat. It locks at the database level.
there is no rowlevel locking.

If you want some examples I can post them.
