Weird title, the bulk of the article talked about the same stuff various Rails/SQLite talks have mentioned, the positivity at the end is nice I guess. The real nice thing about SQLite in prod though is how much it simplifies development and deployment. Let's be real, a lot of apps people build are relatively small, basic CRUD apps that see modest usage or are even internal-only, SQLite is perfect for that. And SQLite can scale reasonably well on modern hardware. It follows the premise of Rails quite nicely: it gets you up and running, scaling to the point you're making a decent amount of money and then you can figure out how to scale beyond that, if you need to. |
