# SQLx
* **Asynchronous**. Handle thousands of database connections from a single thread.
* **Native**. SQLx is a pure Rust† toolkit for SQL. Where possible, drivers are written from scratch, in Rust, utilizing the modern (as of Aug. 2019) ecosystem (the `runtime` crate) for asynchronous network services development.
* **Modular**. _TO BE WRITTEN_
* **Fast**. _TO BE WRITTEN_
* **Agnostic**. SQLx is agnostic over the database engine and can operate against a variety of database backends with the backend chosen **at compile-time** through generic constraints **or at runtime** with a slight performance loss (due to dynamic dispatch).
<sub><sup>† The SQLite driver (which does not yet exist) uses the libsqlite3 C library as SQLite is an embedded database (the only way we could be pure Rust for SQLite is by porting _all_ of SQLite to Rust).</sup></sub>
