[Dbix-class] Catalyst advent calendar - need help

[Ido Perlmuter]

I myself would really like to read an article about transactions, as the
documentation is a little lacking right now.

Caching and Replication are also very interesting. By the way, does it
matter what Cache backend I'm using with the Caching trait? Will a File
Cache do the job?

Thanks,
Ido.
