MySQL wrapper for DBSlayer

I have talked previously about Cherokee’s MySQL Database Bridge, so I won’t be repeating myself. Check the information about the Cherokee handler module and the recipe for MySQL balancing on our main site if you are interested.

Besides being the fastest implementation of its kind, it is really easy to use and offers a lot of scalability advantages.

For those of you using PHP we’ve finally pushed upstream a wrapper I wrote for this feature. It should facilitate the use of the MySQL Database Bridge: the PHP-MySQL API has been replicated and can be found under dbslayer/mysql_wrap.php in Cherokee’s source tree. It should provide an easy to use method of benefiting from the advantages offered by Cherokee without having to modify your applications. This will definitely be in our next release, so give it a try and tell us about it! ;)
