aiomysql is an asyncio-based Python driver for accessing MySQL and MariaDB databases, built on top of PyMySQL with its I/O calls converted to async. It also offers optional SQLAlchemy integration ported from aiopg, preserving a familiar API for aiopg users.
Use cases
- query MySQL from an asyncio Python application
- connect to MariaDB asynchronously
- use SQLAlchemy core with async MySQL connections
- pool async MySQL connections in a web app
- migrate aiopg-style code to MySQL
- run async database queries with cursors in Python
When to choose
- you need async MySQL/MariaDB access in an asyncio codebase
- you want a PyMySQL-compatible API with await support
- you want SQLAlchemy integration similar to aiopg
When to avoid
- you use synchronous code or another framework without asyncio
- you need a different database like PostgreSQL (use aiopg or asyncpg)
- you need an ORM with full async model support (consider SQLAlchemy 2.0 async or Tortoise ORM)
