rqlite is a lightweight, open-source, distributed relational database written in Go, which uses SQLite as its storage engine. Development for the 9.0 release has started, and should be an important release. The main goals for 9.0 include: Change Data Capture (CDC). CDC will allow you to stream changes from rqlite as they happen. This long-requested…| Vallified
Two years ago, I appeared on Contributor, a podcast hosted by Eric Anderson of Scale Venture Partners. I was there to talk about rqlite, the open-source database I maintain. Our conversation ended with this thought from me: I think the economics of software are about to change enormously with what we're seeing from LLMs. I…| Vallified
rqlite is a lightweight, user-friendly, open-source, distributed relational database. It’s written in Go and uses SQLite as its storage engine. When it comes to distributed systems the CAP theorem is an essential concept. It states that it's impossible for a distributed database to simultaneously provide Consistency, Availability, and Partition tolerance. The challenge is in the face of a network partition,…| Vallified

We built the old software systems by hand. Line by line. Module by module. That era is ending. Something profound is happening. For the first time in the history of software, we are not the only entities capable of understanding and generating code. And yet the role of the open-source developer has never mattered more.

rqlite is a lightweight, open-source, distributed relational database written in Go. It uses SQLite as its storage engine and Raft for consensus. Last week, I wrote about my experience with language models, how they evolved from simple Python helpers to full-blown design partners and even a sort of AI Product Manager for rqlite, advising on features like Change-Data-Capture. I talked…| Vallified
rqlite is a lightweight, open-source, distributed relational database written in Go. It uses SQLite as its storage engine and Raft for consensus. I’ve been developing rqlite for about ten years, and until recently, the workflow hadn’t changed much. I write the code. Others contribute here and there. GitHub issues are filed, triaged, and resolved. The usual. Then language models showed […]| Vallified
rqlite is a lightweight, user-friendly, open-source, distributed relational database. It’s written in Go and uses SQLite as its storage engine. Thanks to Jesus Zazueta there is a new JDBC driver for rqlite. Specifically it's a Type 4 driver, which means it communicates directly with the rqlite node using its HTTP API. Be sure to check out the repo on GitHub.| Vallified
rqlite is a lightweight, open-source, distributed relational database written in Go, which uses SQLite as its storage engine and Raft for consensus. Ten years ago, I tagged the first release of rqlite—a project I started to explore distributed consensus, to learn Go, and to build something useful. I had no roadmap, no plans for scale, and certainly no…| Vallified
