This is the Perl L<DBI> driver for access to MariaDB and MySQL databases.

The goal of our effort was to fix MariaDB compatibility, Perl Unicode support and security related bugs.

This Perl DBI driver is a fork of the LDBD::mysql driver and was created because said issues in the original DBD::mysql have not been addressed for more than a year.

Usage of this Perl DBI driver is described in LDBD::MariaDB.
