Name        : perl-Apache-DBI
Product     : Fedora EPEL 5
Version     : 1.09
Release     : 1.el5
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-DBI/
Summary     : Persistent database connections with Apache/mod_perl
Description :
This is version 1.09 of Apache::AuthDBI and Apache::DBI.

These modules are supposed to be used with the Apache server together with
an embedded perl interpreter like mod_perl. They provide support for basic
authentication and authorization as well as support for persistent database
connections via Perl's Database Independent Interface (DBI).

o DBI.pm provides persistent database connections:
  - connections can be established during server-startup
  - configurable rollback to ensure data integrity
  - configurable verification of the connections to avoid time-outs.

o AuthDBI.pm provides authentication and authorization:
  - optional shared cache for passwords to minimize database load
  - configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache

Apache::DBI has been in widespread deployment on many platforms for
years.  Apache::DBI is one of the most widely used mod_perl related
modules.  It can be considered stable.
