I'd imagine these small companies dream of being big some day, so why would they invest the time to use SQLite when, should they hit it big, they would have to completely switch databases?
Of course, that's my speculation, but what's the downside to going with PostgreSQL/MySQL in the first place unless you never intend on getting bigger?
- jeltz 15y agoI agree with the thought. While I really like SQLite as a piece of software I see little reason to use it over PostgreSQL unless I need an embedded database. And even if you have no plan of becoming big (e.g if you are in business to business) I see little reason to pick SQLite since PostgreSQL can do everything SQLite can and much more so you never need to worry about outgrowing it.
