Database Access -- Databases and AOLserver

### Databases and AOLserver

AOLserver can be configured to have access to multiple databases through AOLserver's database drivers. AOLserver creates a database pool, a group of connections to a database, for each database it accesses. See page 73 for information on configuring AOLserver. See page 124 for information on the available database drivers.

AOLserver interacts with databases in the following ways:

You can execute DDL or DML database commands by entering DB mode with the ns_cport Tcl command in AOLserver's control port administration interface. See page 91 for detailed information on how to use the control port interface. You can write your own Tcl or C extensions to access the database. See the Tcl Developer's Guide and the C Developer's Guide for more information.
