How (and why) to run SQLite in production
Stephen Margheim
Hey, I’m Stephen. I'm an American expat living in Berlin with my wife and two dogs. I am a contributor to Rails and the sqlite3-ruby gem as well as the maintainer of a handful of gems aimed at making Ruby and Rails the absolute best platforms in the world to run SQLite projects. For my day job, I am the engineering manager at Test IO.
About
You've heard the whispers, sensed the hype, but you're still not sure what all the fuss is about with SQLite these days. Join me as we explore the use-cases and benefits of running SQLite in a production environment. Along the way, we will learn why SQLite makes sense as your next production database and how to ensure that your setup is optimized for end-user performance and developer happiness. We will setup and deploy a vanilla Rails application to demonstrate both how easy that process can be and how solid the performance is out-of-the-box. We will then explore some of the more advanced features of SQLite and how to use them to your advantage. Finally, we will discuss some of the common pitfalls and how to avoid them. You will leave this talk with a solid understanding of how to get started with SQLite in production and how to ensure that your application is running at peak performance. Come along for the ride!
