DBI Storage interface for Oryx. You should not need to instantiate this directly, use Oryx->connect() instead.

Simple constructor

connect( \@conn, [$schema] )

Called by Oryx->connect(). You shouldn't need to be doing this.

util

simple mutator for accessing the oryx::dbi::util::x instance

set_util

determines which Oryx::DBI::Util class to instantiate by looking at the dsn passed to connect and sets it

deploy_schema( $schema )
