Sequel is a database toolkit for Ruby.

• Sequel provides thread safety, connection pooling and a concise

DSL for constructing database queries and table schemas.

• Sequel also includes a lightweight but comprehensive ORM layer for

mapping records to Ruby objects and handling associated records.

• Sequel supports advanced database features such as prepared

statements, bound variables, master/slave configurations, and database
sharding.

• Sequel makes it easy to deal with multiple records without having

to break your teeth on SQL.

• Sequel currently has adapters for ADO, DB2, DBI, Informix, JDBC,

MySQL, ODBC, OpenBase, Oracle, PostgreSQL and SQLite3.
