Is SQLite thread safe?

Is SQLite thread-safe? (single process concurrency) The question here is whether multiple threads in a single process can access and use SQLite, presumably with different connections. The answer is a resounding yes. SQLite is indeed threadsafe, though they're pretty against using threads in the first place.

Is SQLite slow?

The SQLite docs explains why this is so slow: Transaction speed is limited by disk drive speed because (by default) SQLite actually waits until the data really is safely stored on the disk surface before the transaction is complete. That way, if you suddenly lose power or if your OS crashes, your data is still safe.

What type of database is SQLite?

SQLite (/ˌɛsˌkjuːˌɛlˈaɪt/, /ˈsiːkwəˌlaɪt/) is a relational database management system (RDBMS) contained in a C library. In contrast to many other database management systems, SQLite is not a client–server database engine. Rather, it is embedded into the end program.

How do I start SQLite?

When should I use SQLite?

SQLite is often used as the on-disk file format for desktop applications such as version control systems, financial analysis tools, media cataloging and editing suites, CAD packages, record keeping programs, and so forth. The traditional File/Open operation calls sqlite3_open() to attach to the database file.

How do I view SQLite files?
