Zebra_Session2.0.2 - Download

Zebra_Session is a PHP class that acts as a wrapper for PHP's default session handling functions but instead of storing session data in flat files it stores them in a MySQL database, thus providing both better security and better performance.

The library is also a solution for applications that are scaled across multiple web servers (using a load balancer or a round-robin DNS) and where the user's session data needs to be available. Storing sessions in a database makes them available to all of the servers!

Zebra_Session's code is heavily commented and generates no warnings/errors/notices when PHP's error reporting level is set to E_ALL.

Starting with version 2.0, Zebra_Session implements row locks, ensuring that data is correctly handled in a scenario with multiple concurrent AJAX requests.

• it is a drop-in and seemingless replacement for PHP's default session handler: PHP sessions will be used in the same way as prior to using the library
• implements row locks, ensuring that data is correctly handled in scenarios with multiple concurrent AJAX requests.
• because session data is stored in a database, the library represents a solution for applications that are scaled across multiple web servers (using a load balancer or a round-robin DNS)
• has comprehensive documentation
• the code is heavily commented and generates no warnings/errors/notices when PHP’s error reporting level is set to E_ALL.
