        *Pandora* is a universal database proxy and SQL-Database engine, that implements
        high-performance and security requirements for large-scale enterprise analytical
        applications.
        
        The primary goal of Pandora is to separate data integration and data analysis
        into independent tasks, by providing a unified (universal) data interface for
        machine learning- and data analysis applications. To achieve this goal, Pandora
        implements the two fundamental layers of a data warehouse:
        
        The *integration layer* of Pandora utilizes
        [SQLAlchemy](https://www.sqlalchemy.org) to allow it\'s connection to a variety
        of SQL-Databases (e.g. IBM DB2, Oracle, SAP, MS-SQL, MS-Access, Firebird,
        Sybase, MySQL, Postgresql, SQLite, etc.). Thereupon it provides native support
        for flat file databases (e.g. CSV-Tables, R-Table exports), laboratory
        measurements and data generators.
        
        The *staging layer* of Pandora is implemented as a native SQL-Database engine,
        featuring a DB-API 2.0 interface with full SQL:2016 support, a vertical data
        storage manager and real-time encryption. This allows the data analysis
        application to integrate a variety of different data sources, by using a unified
        data interface (and SQL dialect).
        
        Pandora is [open source](https://github.com/frootlab/pandora), based on the
        [Python](https://www.python.org/) programming language and actively developed as
        part of the [Smart Analytics](https://github.com/orgs/frootlab/projects) project
        at [Frootlab](https://github.com/frootlab). Pandora is developed as a generic
        data interface, which can be integrated into data analysis applications, to
        facilitate the integration of data.
        
        Current Development Status
        --------------------------
        
        Pandora currently is in *Pre-Alpha* development stage, which immediately follows
        the *Planning* stage. This means, that at least some essential requirements of
        Pandora are not yet implemented. A comprehensive list of all currently supported
        data back-ends is given in the [online
        manual](https://pandora.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Comprehensive information and installation support is provided within the
        [online manual](https://pandora.readthedocs.io/en/latest/). If you already have
        a Python environment configured on your computer, you can install the latest
        distributed version by using pip:
        
            $ pip install pandb
        
        Documentation
        -------------

        manual](https://pandora.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) and for download in the
        formats [PDF](https://readthedocs.org/projects/pandora/downloads/pdf/latest/),
