SQLite for the edge — fast, distributed, and cheap
Pricing is genuinely cheap — the free tier includes 9GB storage and 500 databases which covers most indie projects indefinitely
Edge replication puts a read replica close to every user without any configuration, which makes global apps feel instant
SQLite is so simple that onboarding a new developer takes minutes — there's no server to configure or connection string to debug
The embedded replica feature lets you run the database in-process for zero-latency reads in serverless environments
Drizzle ORM integration is first-class and the setup docs are the best in the SQLite ecosystem right now
SQLite's limited ALTER TABLE support means schema migrations are more awkward than with Postgres — you often have to recreate tables
Write latency goes to the primary region, so users far from your primary location will see slower write performance than reads
Multi-tenant setups with hundreds of databases sound great in theory but managing that many separate databases adds operational complexity
The ecosystem is still young and you'll hit undocumented edge cases that require digging through GitHub issues to resolve
