Compliance A Database Abstraction Layer provides a common API to access different DBMS. Using a DBAL it doesn't matter if you have to use MySQL, PostgreSQL, DB2 or Oracle ? the  application using a DBAL will know how to handle the different DBMS.

Empowering Typo3 to use other DBMS apart from MySQL will open more doors for Typo3 to enter the Enterprise Sector. Currently there are some larger companies where Typo3 cannot be used because the only DBMS supported is MySQL.

TBD Many more Sponsors are needed!
