DBIx::Class. I don't want to go to the effort of going into massive detail here, but in short: It allows you to write SQL access code under which you can use ANY database (SQLite, MySQL, MSSQL, Postgres, what have you), without changing a single line of your code. It will not only deploy your schema onto the database server, but also optimize your queries, so that for anything of slight complexity, it will likely be faster than your hand-written queries.
