rqlite – distributed database built on SQLite

rqlite combines the simplicity of SQLite with a fault-tolerant, highly available system. Whether you’re deploying resilient services in the cloud or reliable applications at the edge, rqlite provides a developer-friendly database that’s exceptionally easy to operate.

rqlite aims to be a rock-solid, fault-tolerant, relational database with effortless installation, deployment, and operation. You can run a single node for a SQLite-over-the-network solution, or scale up to a cluster for high-availabilty. It’s ideal as a lightweight, distributed relational data store for both developers and operators – think Consul or etcd, but with relational modeling available. Use rqlite to reliably store your most important data, ensuring it’s always available to your applications.

It’s designed for easy deployment and lightweight operation, offering a developer-friendly and operator-centric solution for Linux, macOS, and Windows, as well as various CPU platforms.

This is free and open source software.
