IRegionModule

Introduction

A key design principle of OpenSim is the heavy use of plug-ins. All the key components of OpenSim are designed to be replaceable or extensible a runtime.

• Database engines can be replaced (currently OpenSim has full support for)
  • SQLite
  • MySQL (almost complete)
  • db4o is partially implemented
  • MS-SQL Server is in a template stage.
• Backed servers can be replaced by changing a url, currently there are servers for:
  • User authentication
  • Grid registration
  • Asset storage
  • Script execution

can be replaced, simply by pointing the sim to a new url.

• Scrip languages can be replaced
• Region modules can be added
