What makes you say ODBC is a pain? I have two files (/etc/odbc.ini and /etc/idbcinst.ini, which are 8 lines and 3 lines in size respectively) and I had to install one file /usr/local/lib/libmaodbc.so to make it work with MariaDB.

Yes: a) efficient b) can be done on a machien remote from the call processing c) is realtime - call ends, CDRs are immediately available for analysis d) can even include triggers on DB updates, for example to raise anti-fraud alerts.
