AnyData
I just discovered AnyData::Format::Weblog, which lets you search Apache logs with SQL or access them through a tied hash. Cute! I'm picturing Amazon via AnyData:

DBD? (Score:2)
Oughtn't that to be done with a DBD backend, then? I was thinking there ought to be a presentation on how to write DBD backends to allow you to pretend various data sources are a relational database at one of the conferences this year; something I wish I could research and present myself, if I knew I were going to have time or be able to come. (Two big doubtfuls.)

Every time I think there's a new wheel to invent, it's been done. That's one of the great things about Perl. :)
