looking for light-weight data persistence solution in perl

Question

In my app I need to store some simple data both in memroy and in disk. A real database will be overkill in my case, so I need lighter one to handle the simple data persistence r

Answer 1

You might want to try Tie::Storable. Then it's as simple as addressing a hash.

If you're not looking to store a ton of data and you're OK loading everything all at once at program startup, it might be the way to go.

If you're looking for something more sophisticated but still light weight, a lot of people (including myself) swear by SQLite.
