- HighGoldstein 5mo agoThe reason SQLite is the most deployed is that it's used by Android.
- velcrovan 5mo ago…and iOS, and Windows, and Mac OS, and Boeing, and Sony, and Firefox and Chrome and Safari…
- HighGoldstein 5mo agoYes, which goes in line with the argument that claiming that it's "the most deployed" as proof of superiority or suitability for any use case is equivalent to claiming the same for Internet Explorer. It's the most deployed because it's bundled in a lot of systems, not because people are purposefully using it as a DBMS.
- velcrovan 5mo agoBut it doesn't, because none of those systems are presenting SQLite to the user as something they should be using; they don't even make SQLite available to the user at all. Those systems all use SQLite internally to manage data.
