About:
dqlite is a C library that extends SQLite with a Raft-based consensus algorithm to create a distributed, replicated SQL database engine. It allows applications to run a highly available SQLite database across multiple nodes without external dependencies. This provides strong consistency and fault tolerance for embedded and edge computing scenarios.
Key Features:
  • Serverless architecture with zero configuration
  • Built-in Raft consensus for automatic leader election
  • Full SQL support via SQLite query language
  • Embeddable library with no external services required
  • Cross-platform compatibility
Use Cases:
  • Building highly available IoT and edge applications
  • Creating fault-tolerant distributed systems with embedded databases
  • Developing applications requiring consistent state without complex database infrastructure
Alternatives:
  • CockroachDB – More complex, requires separate nodes and is heavier weight than dqlite's embedded approach
  • etcd – Key-value store only, lacks SQL query capabilities of dqlite
