cross database application using PDO

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm working on a new ecommerce application at work and am trying to implement as many features as possible, one of which being the ability to switch from a mysql db to a postgres one pretty much instantly.

 

Is this possible with PDO? I don't have much experience with postgres, all I really know is that it does auto increment differently and supports things like inheritance.

 

Do you think it would be possible to create an application which only used cross DBMS queries?

 

Thanks in advance.

Of course its possible, many applications and frameworks already do it. And yes, PDO can be of great assistance in this regard.
