SQLite /ˌɛskjuːɛlˈlaɪt/[2] (/ˈsiːkwɛl.laɪt/)[3] is an ACID-compliant embedded relational database management system contained in a relatively small (~275 kB)[4] C programming library. The source code for SQLite is in the public domain[1][5] and implements most of the SQL standard. In contrast to other databases, SQLite is not a separate process that is accessed from the client application, but an integral part of it.
SQLite uses a dynamically and weakly typed SQL syntax that does not guarantee the domain integrity. SQLite is a multitasking database concerning reads. Writes can be done only one-at-a-time. It is a popular choice for local/client storage on web browsers. It has many bindings to programming languages. It is arguably the most widely used database engine, as it is used today by several widespread browsers, operating systems, embedded systems among others.[6]
