Install DBI and DBD::mysql

For DBD::mysql for ActiveState, have a look at :

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/activestate-perl.html

and

http://code.activestate.com/ppm/DBD-mysql/

As M42 has said, DBI and DBD::mysql should be the basis of any work that needs to talk to a MySQL database.

But I'd go further than that and recommend that you look at DBIx::Class as an easy way to get data from (and into) a database.
