SQLite

SQLite is a lightweight, serverless, self-contained, and zero-configuration SQL database engine that is widely used in application development for managing small to medium databases. It is embedded directly into the application, allowing you to store all your data in a single cross-platform file, which reduces complexity associated with database servers. SQLite provides full support for transactions, has a minimal footprint, and is renowned for its reliability and performance in situations where a full-fledged relational database system might be overkill. Its simplicity and ease of use make it ideal for applications like mobile apps, desktop applications, and small to medium websites that don’t require the high demands of enterprise-level database management. As an application developer, you can leverage SQLite to execute a range of operations using SQL queries without needing a separate server process, significantly simplifying deployment and maintenance.
