SQLite is a lightweight, , and self-contained relational database engine that stores an entire database in a single disk file. It is widely used because it requires zero configuration , meaning there is no server to install, manage, or secure. Key Features of SQLite
: The library is highly efficient, typically taking up less than 600KiB of space, which is ideal for resource-constrained environments like mobile devices.
: It guarantees that transactions are atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable, ensuring data integrity even if the system crashes or loses power.
: Unlike traditional databases like MySQL or PostgreSQL , SQLite doesn't run as a separate process; the engine is integrated directly into the application as a library.
