+<h3>Summary</h3>
+
+ <p>mod_dbd manages SQL database connections using
+ <a href="http://people.apache.org/~niq/dbd.html">apr_dbd</a>.
+ It provides database connections on request to modules
+ requiring SQL database functions, and takes care of
+ managing databases with optimal efficiency and scalability
+ for both threaded and non-threaded MPMs.</p>

+<h2><a id="reslist" name="reslist">Connection Pooling</a></h2>
+ <p>This module manages database connections, in a manner
+ optimised for the platform. On non-threaded platforms,
+ it provides a persistent connection in the manner of
+ classic LAMP (Linux, Apache, Mysql, Perl/PHP/Python).
+ On threaded platform, it provides an altogether more
+ scalable and efficient <em>connection pool</em>, as
+ described in <a href="http://www.apachetutor.org/dev/reslist" title="Connection pooling in Apache">this article at ApacheTutor</a>.
+ mod_dbd supersedes the modules presented in that article.</p>

+<h2><a id="API" name="API">Apache DBD API</a></h2>
+ <p>mod_dbd exports three functions for other modules to use.
+ The API is as follows:</p>
+<pre><code>typedef struct {
+ apr_dbd_t *handle;
+ apr_dbd_driver_t *driver;
+ apr_hash_t *prepared;
+} ap_dbd_t;
+
+/* Export functions to access the database */
+
+/* acquire a connection that MUST be explicitly closed.
+ * Returns NULL on error
+ */
+AP_DECLARE(ap_dbd_t*) ap_dbd_open(apr_pool_t*, server_rec*);
+
+/* release a connection acquired with ap_dbd_open */
+AP_DECLARE(void) ap_dbd_close(server_rec*, ap_dbd_t*);
+
+/* acquire a connection that will have the lifetime of a request
+ * and MUST NOT be explicitly closed. Return NULL on error.
+ * This is the preferred function for most applications.
+ */
+AP_DECLARE(ap_dbd_t*) ap_dbd_acquire(request_rec*);
+
+/* Also export them as optional functions for modules that prefer it */
+APR_DECLARE_OPTIONAL_FN(ap_dbd_t*, ap_dbd_open, (apr_pool_t*, server_rec*));

+<h2><a id="prepared" name="prepared">SQL Prepared Statements</a></h2>
+ <p>mod_dbd supports SQL prepared statements on behalf of
+ modules that may wish to use them. Each prepared statement
+ must be assigned a name (label), and they are stored in a hash:
+ the <code>prepared</code> field of an <code>ap_dbd_t</code>.
+ Hash entries are of type <code>apr_dbd_prepared_t</code>
+ and can be used in any of the apr_dbd prepared statement
+ SQL query or select commands.</p>
+ <p>It is up to dbd user modules to use the prepared statements
+ and document what statements can be specified in httpd.conf.</p>
