rqlite is a lightweight database built on SQLite that uses Raft consensus to replicate data across multiple nodes for fault tolerance and high availability. It is designed for developers who need a simple, distributed database without complex infrastructure. The software replicates SQLite's functionality while adding automatic failover and data synchronization capabilities, making it suitable for applications requiring reliable data persistence with minimal operational overhead.
