[PHP-DB] Adding a PDO driver to the standard release
Hi, Not sure if I'm asking in the right place. One of our engineers wrote a PDO driver for the IBM U2 databases. Info can be found at: http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/db2/library/techarticle/dm-0612xia/ http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/db2/library/techarticle/dm-0701xia/ and there was a article at PHP developer about this: http://www.phpdeveloper.org/news/7049 Just wondering what steps would be required to get this into the standard PHP release, so that when one installs the PDO capabilities that this PDO driver comes shipped. Regards Claude Masseron Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598. Registered office: PO Box 41, North Harbour, Portsmouth, Hampshire PO6 3AU
RE: [PHP-DB] php maximum characters in text field
Unless you are using a text field (which holds 64K [mysql]) a normal varchar maxs out at 255 characters Post is limited by the php.ini file amounts (usually in the megabyte range). what is the size of the post?

Yes, that is the HTML and the PHP code to check. What about the php code to go to the db?

Re: [PHP-DB] Remote DB Connection: Pros and Cons?
Thank you all for the responses. I think we're going to try replicating the
databases with Slony. Wish me luck!

Splitting the tables probably wouldn't work. Most of the tables are used by
both sites and the ones that aren't are tied to the rest by foreign keys.
Most of the updates are done from the admin site, so we're toying with the
idea of creating a read-only data warehouse for the website. The sync would
be one way from main office db to the warehouse (say, every 10 minutes).
No need to create something that has already been done.
Use slony or something to replicate the database.
Any updates the website does (like an event registration or profile update)
would be done remotely to the office db. In this scheme the website db would
be 10 minutes behind. We can live with that.
When you do a registration, get it to use a remote database connection
instead of the 'local' one.
$local_connection = pg_connect('localhost');
$remote_connection = pg_connect('remote_server_ip');
$remote_result = pg_query($remote_connection, $query);
Doing everything by remote connection would be easier, but we're worried
about the performance.
The only way to find out would be to test it really. As long as you have
a decent connection in to the office and a decent connection on the
remote end and aren't pulling through a ridiculous amount of data in
queries (eg pulling through 50,000 records when you only really need
10), you should be fine.

Not sure if it's important but I'm using persistent connections. test out your server. create a test script to load the results into an array. keep track of memory usage. then calculate that to how much traffic that script will be seeing. so taking that into consideration, if you run separate boxes for your web server/php and db, you can balance out: lots of hits on memory on the web server or lots of disc access on the db server if you decide to go with the re-call the db server paging methods... -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
