[plt-scheme] Choosing language in PLT Scheme

Use the Module language, with #lang scheme. That gets you 2.

For 1, (require ...) the web server packages you need.
For 2, (require (planet ...)) the db bindings you'd like. To figure
out what you'd like to use, go to

http://planet.plt-scheme.org

and use your browser's Find command to find packages having to do with
SQLite, PostgreSQL, or whatever.
