Interesting, where'd you hear that? :)
Haven't heard figures regarding SQLite's business side of things (yet), and doing some online searching isn't turning up anything useful.
- cryptonector 4y agoThe SQLite Consortium clearly has enough employees and importance that that's a fair estimate. You could talk to them about joining the consortium and see if you can manage to get a quote, then extrapolate from that, but really, the members are deep pocket types who are utterly dependent on SQLite3 and who want improvements (not just support).
- wahern 4y agoYour challenge piqued my curiosity. ;) SQLite sells support, licensing, and services using a small staff of engineers. See https://sqlite.org/prosupport.html https://sqlite.org/prosupport.html The premium support contract is $120k/year, and it appears from the website that they have at least 4 such clients. See https://www.sqlite.org/index.html#consortium_members https://www.sqlite.org/index.html#consortium_members But even if those are all past clients, all things considered--support tiers, US domestic engineering staff, etc--it seems likely their annual revenue is at least $500K, and would not be surprising if more than $2M. It would be interesting to hear concrete sources, though.
