POE DB Modules

From KallestadWiki

Searching through CPAN, I see several POE based DB Modules.

• POE::Component::DBIAgent
• POE::Component::LaDBI
• POE::Component::EasyDBI
• POE::Component::SimpleDBI

The question immediately arises, which one is best. Although "best" isn't necessarily the primary factor. LWP is by far the most extensive network interaction utility module, but that doesn't prevent me from using LWP::Simple or WWW:Mechanize when they are appropriate.

There is also the possibility of rolling my own, although I would prefer to leverage more mature code at least until I get to the point where I have other developers working on this project.

EasyDBI and SimpleDBI both have recent activity, LaDBI hasn't been updated since 2004 and DBIAgent hasn't been updated since 2006. Of course, that could mean that they are both very solid already.
