SQLite

About SQLite

SQLite is a small C library that implements a self-contained, embeddable, zero-configuration SQL database engine. Features include:

• Transactions are atomic, consistent, isolated, and durable (ACID) even after system crashes and power failures.
• Zero-configuration - no setup or administration needed.
• Implements most of SQL92. (Features not supported)
• A complete database is stored in a single disk file.
• Database files can be freely shared between machines with different byte orders.
• Supports databases up to 2 terabytes (2⁴¹ bytes) in size.
• Sizes of strings and BLOBs limited only by available memory.
• Small code footprint: less than 250KiB fully configured or less than 150KiB with optional features omitted.
• Faster than popular client/server database engines for most common operations.
• Simple, easy to use API.
• TCL bindings included. Bindings for many other languages available separately.
• Well-commented source code with over 95% test coverage.
• Self-contained: no external dependencies.
• Sources are in the public domain. Use for any purpose.
