We performed a comparison between MariaDB and SQLite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Oracle, PostgreSQL, MariaDB and others in Open Source Databases."I would say that for most use cases it works fine."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is an open-source product and offers its users great online community support."
"The most valuable feature of MariaDB is the replication mode."
"Installation is straightforward."
"We like the easy way that we can collect data from other databases."
"It is very simple to install, and the commands are exactly the same as MySQL."
"One of the great features of MariaDB is its scalability. It's easy to handle even with large databases."
"It's easy to set up."
"I use Flutter Technology with the JSF plugin."
"The product is lightweight and highly scalable."
"SQLite’s most valuable feature is the ability to store granular-level backups of databases."
"I would like to see more compatibility going forward. This would help if there is a need to change databases."
"MariaDB doesn't handle long or complex SQL queries quite as well as Oracle Database."
"It would be good if they can maybe improve the mass import in the database. Currently, for importing a large number of data, we create a CSV file and upload all the things in the system. The system does not activate them by default. We have to do this manually. This may be due to the version we are using, but this is something we would like to see improved."
"The stability could always continue to be improved upon."
"MariaDB could improve by adding support for non-relational structures and new data types."
"The interface should be more user-friendly. It should be able to connect directly to the database and Interact with it without having to use commands. It needs better integration."
"MariaDB can improve by adding more features. There are a lot of features, which are available in Oracle, and which are not available in MariaDB. We hope they will introduce the features soon."
"MariaDB's GUI is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"It could have a user-friendly GUI and better intelligence features."
"I primarily use SQLite for small-scale applications due to its limitations in storing large amounts of data. For larger-scale projects, I typically opt for MySQL or other alternatives. Storing a large number of dates in SQLite can significantly impact its performance."
"The performance could be better."
