If you are into perl, you should definitely look at Class::DBI
(http://www.class-dbi.com) which is freely available from CPAN (despite
the .com site).  It treats table rows as objects with methods.  It can
model foreign key relationships based entirely on the database schema
(and entirely automatically).  Then, there are simple extensions that
add methods for generating an HTML form directly from the database,
validate the resulting queries, etc.  It can be a very fast way to
develop a web-based application.
