Thank you all for your replies. I am indeed talking about working with multiple back ends (oracle, mysql, or any valid DBI module) in the same query.

I'll post any follow-up questions to the dev list.

I want to write a query like:

select clients.client.client_id, columnar.sales.total_sales, web.page_hits from clients, columnar, web
where clients.client_id = columnar.client_id
and  clients.client_id = web.client_id

in a system where 'clients' is actually one or more relational databases, 'columnar' is one or columnar databases, and 'web' is the Apache logs on one or more web servers. The dbi driver would be configured to connect to the correct databases and filter web hits based on 'client_id'.

Has somebody written that already?

Thanks,
Andrew
