When It Rains, It Drizzles
Unless you've been completely out of touch with the open source world, you'll have heard of Drizzle, a new database server that's derived from MySQL. The Drizzle project aims to build a "smaller, lighter, faster" version of MySQL that offers similar stability and ease of use, but strips out certain features from the core system in order to improve performance and scalability.
Now, while Drizzle is still relatively new, it is quickly gaining attention among open source developers who are interested in experimenting with it, contributing to it, and using it in their projects. And that's where this article comes in. Over the next few pages, I'll guide you through the process of getting started with Drizzle, showing you how to compile and install it, set up a Drizzle database, and connect to it using PHP. Let's get started!
