I was reading the documentation for MDB2. It said that it is an abstraction layer for PHP. Pardon my lack of understanding, but I just want to make sure that my understanding is correct. It appears to me that MDB2 is a database interface (such as ODBC and OLE-DB), and it is not actually a database (such as MySQL and PostgreSQL). Is my understanding correct? They compare it to DB and ADODB, but I am not familiar with those terms, and widipedia doesn't have entries for them.
