SQLite
December 24th, 2007
It’s possibly criminal, but to date, I’ve not yet used SQLite for anything.
Noting that SQLite3 has become the default database for Rails 2.0.2, I thought I’d wander over to their site and take a look. I soon found the famous page, which lists some well-known users of the database, including Adobe, Firefox, Google, and many others.
Of note, it seems Sun is using it in Solaris 10; they note “Sun has essentially replaced the traditional unix /etc/inittab file with an SQLite database.” This is an interesting idea all on its own.
