Right, and third party software is a thing. There are also plenty of reasons to prefer the simplicity of SQLite even if that means you have the task of managing your own backups.
- vidarh 10y agoThere are plenty of reasons to prefer that simplicity if you intend to write software meant to run on a single computer. The moment you want to deploy a service, unless the data is "mostly static" (e.g. something you might update offline and ship copies of), the simplicity that makes things like Sqlite great often ends up creating complexity.
