To use mysqli or PDO?
I’m trying to make my mind up about whether I should be using mysqli or PDO for a project I’m just starting and I’ve found a few relevant articles:
- PDO vs. MySQLi: Which Should You Use?
- mysqli or PDO – what are the pros and cons?
- When to use MySQL, MySQLi, or PDO in PHP
- Should I use mysql, mysqli or PDO?
- Why you Should be using PHP’s PDO for Database Access
- Not Convinced PDO is Everything It’s Hyped Up to Be
- PHP Driver: MySQL vs MySQLi vs PDO MySQL
- PHP mysqli overview

- PHP, PDO, MYSQLI opinions please
And based on all of that I think I’ve decided to use PDO.
