Are there any specific PHP functions or libraries recommended for handling database operations in Typo3?

When working with databases in Typo3, it is recommended to use the built-in TYPO3 Database API for handling database operations. This API provides functions for executing queries, fetching results, and handling database connections in a secure and efficient manner. 

// Connect to the database using TYPO3 Database API
$connection = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance(\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Database\ConnectionPool::class)
    ->getConnectionForTable('your_table_name');

// Execute a query using prepared statement
$queryBuilder = $connection->createQueryBuilder();
$queryBuilder
    ->select('*')
    ->from('your_table_name')
    ->where(
        $queryBuilder->expr()->eq('column_name', $queryBuilder->createNamedParameter('value'))
    );

$result = $queryBuilder->execute();

// Fetch results
while ($row = $result->fetch()) {
    // Process each row
}

// Close the database connection
$connection->close();
