Learn how to access and manipulate databases using the object-oriented PHP extensions PDO and MySQLi.
- [Voiceover] Welcome to this course on Accessing Databases with Object-Oriented PHP. I'm David Powers. We begin with PHP data objects, PDO. PDO produces database neutral code that works with more than a dozen database systems including MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server, PostgreSQL, and SQLlite. Then we'll examine the object-oriented interface of MySQL Improved, which is dedicated to MySQL. You'll not only see how to perform basic select, insert, update, and delete operations, but also how to improve security with prepared statements and to use transactions to execute a series of queries as a single unit that commits changes only if all parts succeed.
We'll also look at some advanced topics such as instantiating custom objects with values drawn from a database. Without more ado, let's start Accessing Databases with Object-Oriented PHP.
