<title>Overview</title>
<para>
The matrix module can be used to arbitrary lookup operations over an array.
One possible usecase is to define which routing tree should
be used depending on the preferred carrier of the source number and
the carrier id of the destination number.
The matrix cells are read from a database and can be reloaded using
a FIFO command.
You do not have to define all matrix cells. The matrix can be sparse.
Currently, the implementation is designed for a small number of
columns (they are stored in a linked list). This does
not scale well and has to be replaced by more an efficient data
data structure when needed.

<title>Installation and Running</title>

<title>Database setup</title>
<para>
Before running &kamailio; with matrix, you have to setup the database
table where the module will read the matrix data. For that, if
the table was not created by the installation script or you choose
to install everything by yourself you can use the matrix-create.sql
<acronym>SQL</acronym> script in the database directories in the
kamailio/scripts folder as template.
Database, table, and column names can be set with module parameters so they
can be changed.
You can also find the complete database documentation on the
project webpage, &kamailiodbdocs;.
