Unless I am mistaken (which actually happens quite often) DBI is the base modue that perl uses.. the extension of that DBI::Pg (which is called in the script) is postgres specific. That is what I am using and I am new to postgres but have been working with perl for 3-4 years and I have found it very easy to use.

However, I have seen a lot of people use DBI. Are there any advantages/disadvantages in using one or the other for connecting to postgres via perl. Also, which one is more widely used?
