PHP Data Objects
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A PHP 5 database access extension. From the PHP Manual:
The PHP Data Objects (PDO) extension defines a lightweight, consistent interface for accessing databases in PHP. Each database driver that implements the PDO interface can expose database-specific features as regular extension functions.
[edit] History
Development began in 2003 when some meetings were held at LinuxTag. [1]
While it was marked experimental and had to be acquired through PECL until PHP 5.0, it is stable and included in PHP 5.1 and later.
