If you just need to store data, i.e. you just need a thin layer above
file storage, I'd suggest evaluating ZODB
It's very simple, somehow pythonic, and you don't need to learn SQL to
manage the data (of course, SQL is just fine, and from a real DB you get
much more than just data storage, but since you are just writing about
alternatives to file storage, I assume that SQL would not be a plus)
