Description
PHP and MySQL form the foundation of many Web applications. In this talk Johannes Schlüter, who is working for Sun Microsystem's Connectors and Client Connectivity team on the interoperability of PHP and MySQL, is giving an update on PHP and MySQL. The talk will discuss the available APIs (the classic "mysql" extension, mysqli and PDO_mysql) as well as the mysql native driver, a PHP-specific drop-in replacement for the MySQL Client Library (libmysql).
Johannes will show the new possibilities they provide, like asynchronous queries, and will look into the future and show features currently in development by the Sun and php.net teams.
