Hi,
a common advantage if all these database abstraction layers is the
consistent API for different databases like MySQL, Oracle, etc.
PEAR DB and MDB2 are implemented in PHP, PDO comes with PHP 'natice' is
a C implementation. Therefore I prefer PDO by reason of speed and the
constraint to use PHP 5 (PDO isn't available for PHP 4).
hth,
Roy
