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- configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache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