rqlite is a lightweight, open-source distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. v3.12.1 has been released. This release includes integration with a new Discovery Service, allowing nodes to automatically connect and form a cluster. This can be very convenient, allowing clusters to be dynamically created.
You can download the release from GitHub.
In this post I describe how I built a serverless cluster discovery service for rqlite, the distributed relational database built on SQLite.
Built using the AWS API Gateway service, AWS Lambda, and DynamoDB, it means rqlite nodes no longer need to be passed the network address of an existing node in a cluster, and can instead connect automatically.

rqlite is a lightweight distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. With release v3.7.0 you can load SQLite dump files directly into rqlite. This makes restoring from a backup, or migrating an existing SQLite database to rqlite much easier.

rqlite is an open-source distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. v3.6.0 is out. With this release a new node can now join an existing cluster though any node of that cluster, not just through the leader node.

rqlite is a lightweight, open-source distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. Thanks to the power of the Go tool chain, it is compatible with Microsoft Windows without any extra effort.
To ensure that it remains compatible with Windows, I have enabled CI for Windows using AppVeyor. After some help from the open-source community, it’s up and running now.
My old colleagues at InfluxData have released InfluxDB 1.0. Congratulations to them all on this great milestone.
Being involved with the development of InfluxDB was a great experience, and I’m sure the database will go from strength to strength.
rqlite is an open-source distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. v3.5.0 is out. This release supports important control of foreign key constraints, in the underlying SQLite database.

rqlite is an open-source distributed relational database, which uses SQLite as its storage engine. rqlite is written in Go and uses Raft to achieve consensus across a set of SQLite databases. It gracefully handles leader election, and can tolerate machine failure.
With the v3 release series, rqlite can now replicate SQLite databases on a global scale, with very little effort. Let’s see it in action using the AWS EC2 cloud.
rqlite is an open-source distributed relational database, with SQLite as its storage engine. v3.0.1 has been released and it is a significant upgrade relative to the 2.0 series. The 3.0 series allows more sophisticated clusters to be built and simplifies rqlite client coding requirements.

To help with the growth of rqlite, it’s been moved to a new repository, under a dedicated organization. Github made this transfer very easy.
I decided on a new logo too.
rqlite is a replicated relational database built on SQLite, with distributed consensus provided by the Raft consensus protocol. It gracefully handles leader election, and can tolerate machine failure.
Written in Go, v2.2.1 is out now.

I made a presentation on rqlite tonight at the San Francisco Go Meetup. It was an enjoyable evening, and I had a chance to discuss why I built rqlite, how it works, and where it might go in the future.
