/**
 * Class DatabaseFactory
 *
 * Use it like this:
 * $database = DatabaseFactory::getFactory()->getConnection();
 *
 * That's my personal favourite when creating a database connection.
 * It's a slightly modified version of Jon Raphaelson's excellent answer on StackOverflow:
 * http://stackoverflow.com/questions/130878/global-or-singleton-for-database-connection
 *
 * Full quote from the answer:
 *
 * "Then, in 6 months when your app is super famous and getting dugg and slashdotted and you decide you need more than
 * a single connection, all you have to do is implement some pooling in the getConnection() method. Or if you decide
 * that you want a wrapper that implements SQL logging, you can pass a PDO subclass. Or if you decide you want a new
 * connection on every invocation, you can do do that. It's flexible, instead of rigid."
 *
 * Thanks! Big up, mate!

PSR1 recommends that each class must be in a namespace of at least one level to avoid collisions.
