What Is MySQLi?

MySQLi is the relational database driver used in PHP that provides an interface with MySQL. MySQLi is essentially the major bridge between PHP and MySQL. Like most successful technology, PHP and MySQL are continually being improved upon. Ext/MySQLi was developed to improve upon the outdated ext/mysql as PHP 5 and MySQL 4.1 were rolled out. MySQLi even stands by its name, which is an abbreviation for "MySQL Improved".
