> If you exceed the capacity of a single node, sharding your data can allow you to scale horizontally to multiple nodes. This works particularly well for SaaS applications where each customer is isolated from one another. Because SQLite and Litestream simplify deployment, managing a cluster of several isolated nodes is easy to maintain. Basically the argument is: do it yourself, and time spent learning how to do it effectively is compensated by the time not spent fighting over complexity caused by operating (and understanding how to use properly) stuff that allegedly "does it for you". The argument sounds plausible in principle, but I'm not entirely sure if this argument resist the harsh clash with reality (where you end up with both doing it yourself and dealing with the effects of your own complexity but this time with no community to consult)
