SQLite is a powerful, self-contained, serverless, and zero-configuration SQL database engine that is designed for efficiency and simplicity. It is particularly well-suited for applications requiring lightweight database solutions, making it an ideal choice for mobile applications, web browsers, and embedded systems. Unlike traditional database systems that require a separate server process, SQLite operates directly from a single file on the disk, allowing applications to read and write data with minimal overhead.

One of the standout features of SQLite is its full implementation of SQL standards, providing robust support for complex queries, transactions, and ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability) properties. This ensures that all database transactions are processed reliably, maintaining data integrity even in the event of application crashes or power failures. The ability to handle multiple concurrent connections and perform transactions efficiently makes SQLite a popular choice for many developers.

SQLite’s small footprint—typically under 1 MB—allows it to be easily embedded in applications without significant resource consumption. This makes it particularly attractive for developers working in resource-constrained environments, such as Internet of Things (IoT) devices and small-scale applications. The database engine is also highly portable, supporting various platforms and programming languages, which enhances its versatility in different development scenarios.

Moreover, the simplicity of SQLite’s design eliminates the need for complex setup or configuration. Developers can create, read, and modify databases without extensive knowledge of database administration, streamlining the development process. The database’s file-based nature means that all data is stored in a single cross-platform file, simplifying tasks like backup, sharing, and data migration.

In summary, SQLite combines the benefits of a relational database with the simplicity of a file-based storage system, making it an invaluable tool for developers seeking a reliable and efficient solution for local data storage and lightweight database management. Whether used for small projects or as a temporary database for larger applications, SQLite continues to be a favored choice due to its performance, ease of use, and broad applicability across various domains.

To subscribe to this product from Azure Marketplace and initiate an instance using the Azure compute service, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to Azure Marketplace and subscribe to the desired product.
2. Search for “virtual machines” and select “Virtual machines” under Services.
3. Click on “Add” in the Virtual machines page, which will lead you to the Create a virtual machine page.
4. In the Basics tab:

• • Ensure the correct subscription is chosen under Project details.
  • Opt for creating a new resource group by selecting “Create new resource group” and name it as “myResourceGroup.”

5. Under Instance details:

• • Enter “myVM” as the Virtual machine name.
  • Choose “East US” as the Region.
  • Select “Ubuntu 18.04 LTS” as the Image.
  • Leave other settings as default.

6. For Administrator account:

• • Pick “SSH public key.”
  • Provide your user name and paste your public key, ensuring no leading or trailing white spaces.

7. Under Inbound port rules > Public inbound ports:

• • Choose “Allow selected ports.”
  • Select “SSH (22)” and “HTTP (80)” from the drop-down.

8. Keep the remaining settings at their defaults and click on “Review + create” at the bottom of the page.
9. The “Create a virtual machine” page will display the details of the VM you’re about to create. Once ready, click on “Create.”
10. The deployment process will take a few minutes. Once it’s finished, proceed to the next section.

To connect to the virtual machine:

1. Access the overview page of your VM and click on “Connect.”
2. On the “Connect to virtual machine” page:

• • Keep the default options for connecting via IP address over port 22.
  • A connection command for logging in will be displayed. Click the button to copy the command. Here’s an example of what the SSH connection command looks like:
    “`
    ssh [email protected]
    “`

3. Using the same bash shell that you used to generate your SSH key pair, you can either reopen the Cloud Shell by selecting >_ again

or going to https://shell.azure.com/bash.
4. Paste the SSH connection command into the shell to initiate an SSH session.
