Virtual table with pl/perl?
Hi!
I'm looking into implementing an updateable "virtual" table using pl/perl.
What i basically want to do is read out/update some external resources.
For programs using the SQL interface, this should look just like a
regular table except that it isn't ACID compliant (no rollbacks).
I'm pretty sure i can make a table, write a bunch of functions and some
do-instead rules. But is there a more elegant/simple solution?

Did you see DBI-Link in pgfoundry.org?

Looks interesting. Thanks.
Though i'm not yet sure i wanna go this way, i'd still have to implement
the database drivers for the stuff i need. Specifically, i need two
things: I need to access external devices via snmp and web, as well as
the ActiveDirectory for our windows domain controllers.
