If you're looking at those, there is also QLime's object relational
mapper that you may want to explore. Although the site hasn't been
updated for a while, email support is still alive ;)

It follows the DRY principle so you do not re-define the schema outside
the database. The following link describes setting up a data lookup to
a csv file and then switching it to use a database. There is not
automatic CRUD though.
