Talk:Perl DBI

DBI tutorial
I wrote a short tutorial on using Perl DBI at Wikibooks: b:Perl Programming/DBI - Perl Database Inteface.

Currently it only has one example for Oracle. That's the only DBMS with which i had personal experience.

It would be great if someone could add a section about connection to a free database, such as MySQL.

Thanks in advance. --Amir E. Aharoni 11:20, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Relation to ODBC?
What is the relation of DBI to ODBC? Is DBI basically the same but restricted to Perl? If so, what is the benefit of using one over the other? Subwy (talk) 10:10, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
