https://github.com/rqlite/rqlite provides a form of horizontal scaling for reads, but it's not a drop in replacement for SQLite. https://github.com/rqlite/rqlite/blob/master/DOC

I believe using a headless service on Kubernetes is the right way to build node discovery and auto-clustering on that system, but I'm interested in learning about other approaches.

Yeah, agreed, if the logging agent (or whatever) isn't installed or running yet, it's going to be hard to get the logs into the centralized system. > That requires intermediate storage as logs are generated, which can fill up (

What is about your deployment or setup that you don't use your log search system instead? Assuming you have one? You could search all your logs files at once (for errors, for strack traces), instead of manually tailing each one, one af

Well, now that I look it, maybe it's not exactly a tailing tool. Interesting nonetheless.

Ha, hadn't seen lnav before. Looks interesting. Proves my point, tailing will never die. :-)

I agree about the centralized logging -- it's my last point. My bigger question is why is anyone tailing log files anymore when the industry has built such a huge number of tools. It's curious, but tailing still has its place, a

Yes, that's exactly how rqlite works. If I ever get around to adding proper transaction support it will have to overcome the challenge you identify. I believe it can be done, but it will require significant changes to the current desig

Sure, but rqlite tries to give you the best of both worlds -- a distributed database that is also lightweight and super-easy to run.

Yeah, I need to get around to creating a Go sql.DB layer. Been too busy adding to the database itself. :-) Soon!

rqlite author here, happy to answer any questions about it. It seems some folks have questions about its design, and the design of systems that combine SQLite and Raft in general. Checking out the rqlite design docs might be helpful: https

What inconsistencies do you mean, precisely? I think you need to provide a clear example of what you mean, to understand what you're getting at. In my experience, any inconsistencies would be due to misuse of Raft, not something intr

rqlite creator here. rqlite (and Raft) doesn't assume this. All it states is that for the cluster to make progress i.e. apply a change in a consistent manner, at least a quorum of nodes must be online and in contact with the Leader (wh
