SQLite: Embedded SQL: Overview

Module: Database-Specific Features

Understand SQLite architecture: serverless, zero-configuration, single-file database that runs in-process with your application

Master SQLite use cases: mobile apps (iOS/Android), desktop apps (browsers, IDEs), embedded systems, local caching, and testing

Learn SQLite limitations: single-writer concurrency model, no network access, limited ALTER TABLE, and when NOT to use SQLite

Understand SQLite performance: fast reads (100K reads/sec), write bottleneck (single writer), WAL mode for better concurrency

Master SQLite deployment: bundled with app (no installation), cross-platform (same file works everywhere), backup strategies

Learn real-world patterns: WhatsApp (2B users, SQLite for local messages), Chrome (SQLite for history/cookies), Airbnb (SQLite for offline mode)
