I dunno... In my neck of the woods, datasets larger than anything a hard drive will store are commonplace, making SQLite a non-starter. I can imagine SQLite being useful for prototyping or for toy apps or for one-offs with small datasets, but not much else...

(Edit to clarify: I think it's awesome for embedded apps. But it never struck me as a good choice for data science.)



Cool, but in between data that fits in RAM and data that requires exotic storage and computing surely you can at least imagine data of this mid-sized variety.

For that, SQLite isn’t necessarily bad.
