This post discusses the misconceptions around SQLite, particularly its efficiency and capabilities in hyper-scale environments versus micro-scale setups. The author argues that SQLite can outperform traditional databases when properly partitioned, utilizing multiple SQLite databases that store data for different entity types. However, challenges arise with global tables that require simultaneous access or consistency across partitions. User comments highlight the need for global visibility in certain functionalities (e.g., session lookup) and suggest interest in implementing write and read replica strategies to enhance performance and usability in metadata tracking. There is a consensus that while SQLite is effective for specific applications, its architectural decisions need careful consideration regarding transactional integrity and scalability.
