<title>GNOME Data Access</title>
<p>GNOME Data Access, or GDA for short, offers a wrapper around
relational databases, which allows you to easily store and retrieve data in many
different common database systems.</p>
<p>Instead of worrying about the vagaries of different database systems, GDA
provides a unified interface to them. GDA supports SQLite, MySQL, PostreSQL,
Microsoft Access, Berkeley DB, Oracle, and JDBC.</p>
