GopherCon 2021: Ben Johnson - Building Production Applications Using Go & SQLite

Despite exponential growth in computing power, we use more servers than ever. Recent advances in the SQLite community have made it a viable option for running scalable, production-ready applications on a single node. Forget the headaches of distributed computing and get back to building software.

Really good talk. The latency measurements at 30:00 are crazy impressive, SQLite blows Postgres away.

My understanding was that "you can't use SQLite in production" was always just a shorthand for "SQLite doesn't support concurrent writes". Obviously still works well in a lot of production application contexts.

I have a question? Are you one of a guy who are developing Pocketbase?

[codingsafari]

at the beginning you show the configs. How do you set them when using sqlite from go? You put them in ~/.sqliterc ?
