Having been a happy user developing solutions around SQLite
for a good amount of time, I find all these "enterprisy"
hacks / extension curious.
There are great solutions out there that handle these things
and have for a long time.
I know SQLite has become the new hotness, but I really do not
want SQLite to get good at all these things because then it
would no longer be great at what it does marvelously already.
- mrkurt 4y agoThis is about as non-enterprisey as it gets. It's built to make sqlite work better for tiny little node.js apps running on very cheap hosting.
- ThinkBeat 4y agoFrom the first of the description of the project on GitHub. > """LiteFS is a FUSE-based file system for replicating SQLite databases across a cluster of machines.""" > """Leader election: currently implemented by Consul using sessions """ That sounds enterprisy to me.
- benbjohnson 4y agoI can see Consul feeling enterprise-y. If you want to distribute SQLite without downtime then you need to move the primary around and that requires leader election. We have Consul already running at Fly.io but I feel like a lot of folks have either Consul or etcd running for some part of their system out there so the idea was to be able to attach onto that.
