Thanks for the feedback. I think so far I am leaning to PEAR or MetaData.

So far my targers are PostgreSQL and Oracle. Although I actually don't
expect a lot of apps moving from PostgreSQL to Oracle, there is a second
part of abstraction layers that people miss. It helps in terms of learning
and reducing production costs. If my team learns one good API which we can
use with both PostgreSQL and Oracle then when we need to develop Oracle
apps it would take us less time.
