Streamline your ETL Process with Sourcetable

What is SQLite?

SQLite is a C-language library that provides a small, fast, self-contained, high-reliability, and full-featured SQL database engine. It is renowned for being the most widely used database engine globally, largely due to its integration into all mobile phones and most computers. Developers often opt for SQLite due to its inclusion with numerous applications, making it a convenient choice for a variety of software development needs.

The SQLite file format is known for its stability, cross-platform capabilities, and backwards compatibility. It is notable that this format is designed to be backwards compatible at least until the year 2050, ensuring long-term usability of data stored in this format. SQLite database files are frequently used as containers for transferring rich content and serve as a reliable long-term archival format for data. With over 1 trillion active SQLite databases, it's evident that this technology plays a crucial role in data management and application development across various platforms.

As a software tool, SQLite supports developers in multiple stages of the software lifecycle, including program development, testing, and maintenance. Its library nature means it can be included in software just like code editors, debuggers, and GUI designers are incorporated to assist with all aspects of software creation and optimization. Due to its extensive use and integration into development environments, SQLite is an essential tool for developers around the world.
