===============

Drizzle's micro-kernel has been designed to allow for data to be stored and
 
5
provided for by different "engines". Engines differ in many ways, but the
 
6
three primary types are, temporary only, transactional, and non-transaction.

Drizzle runs by default with a transaction engine for both regular and
 
9
temporary tables. You can override this behavior by specifing a different
 
10
engine when creating a table.
