#95: SQLite: the most ubiquitus database on the planet. And beyond!
SQLite is by far the most common SQL database ever deployed. Are you
lsitening to this on iPhone or Android device? It runs SQLite. Or maybe
through a web browser? Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Opera and Android
Browser all use SQLite underneath. Are you running MacOS or Windows?
It’s built-in. Most Linux distributions have it as well. “But I’m
listening to your podcast while driving a car”, you say. Well, most
automotive systems use SQLite internally. If you happen to listen to my
podcast while coding in PHP or Python, they include SQLite out-of-the
box. Oh, and it’s the default choice for Ruby on Rails as well. I’m
pretty sure SQLite is used somewhere on the International Space Station
and it maybe even landed on other planets? So, what makes this unsung
hero so popular to run at least one trillion databases
worldwide?
