Turso, an SQLite compatible in-process database written in rust

[pdecat]

Hi Ellie,the project is still in its very early stage, but have you seen GitHub - tursodatabase/turso: Turso Database is a project to build the next evolution of SQLite.?

Haha yes, I’ve heard about it a couple of times now! More here:

LibSQL / Turso as the backend db

Wondering if there is already any discussion of (or interest in) using libSQL (GitHub - tursodatabase/libsql: libSQL is a fork of SQLite that is both Open Source, and Open Contributions.) rather than sqlite as the backend and syncing to Turso(https://turso.tech/) (if I was self hosting I think this is how I would want to do it) I don’t know much about Atuin yet. But this seems like a natural use case to me.

Tldr is that I don’t see any upside from switching, and a lot of possible downside. SQLite is the most solid + reliable part of our stack

The turso I’m referring to is not GitHub - tursodatabase/libsql: libSQL is a fork of SQLite that is both Open Source, and Open Contributions. which is a fork of SQLite, but GitHub - tursodatabase/turso: Turso Database is a project to build the next evolution of SQLite. which is a complete rewrite in rust, from the same team.

PS: did not find the other thread, I searched for “torso”

Oh I see! It does seem neat, something to keep an eye on.
