SQLite is meaningless to non-IT people.
- tastroder 7y agoThose people wouldn't end up on a random documentation page for SQLite then, making this argument superfluous. > I would love to know who uses "serverless" instead of "in-process". Why add a new term at all? This discounts which term came first. Back in 2007 it was just fine to talk about this as being serverless, the marketing term gained popularity years later. They even talk about the more recent definition on the page, I really don't get why people in this sub thread get triggered by some random documentation page written over a decade ago. There's no need to further change or delete that page because this discussion is lacking any practical relevance.
- manigandham 7y agoI didn't make the argument, the other poster did. It doesn't matter what definition came first. It was bad back then when embedded and in-process already existed. Now it's even worse.
- XelNika 7y agoNon-IT people make IT decisions all the time. If you can sell your IT product to C-levels, they'll force IT to use it. Look at how companies misuse things like blockchain, ML and AI just because of the hype around those words.
- manigandham 7y agoYea, that's now how SQLite has ever been sold. All the other comments on this post have since shown just how useless the "serverless" label is for this.
