SQLite the only database you will ever need in most cases
> In contrast to many other database management systems, SQLite is not a client-server database engine, but you actually very rarely need that. If your application software runs on the same physical machine as the database, which is what most small to medium sized web applications does, then you probably only need SQLite.
Disagree.
If you think about it from an attack surface perspective, there are numerous advantages to isolating the database. There are performance, availability, sharding, and columnar options out there also that may better meet the use-case (just to name a few). I have ran Postgres on endpoints when developing with performance akin to SQLite. Further, there are numerous ways in which to increase performance, availability, or to pursue some of the more customized versions of Postgres depending on use-case. One of the times I used Postgres was with Oracle DBAs, and they found the transition pretty simple.
Various customizations / extensions / versions of PG
There are security versions e.g. https://www.crunchydata.com/products/hardened-postgres
Columnar / high performance Parallelized extensions e.g. https://www.citusdata.com/product
General Purpose / Oracle transitions e.g. https://www.citusdata.com/product
Yandex even has an embedded Postgres https://github.com/yandex-qatools/postgresql-embedded
If you'd like to see a full list of features see https://www.postgresql.org/about/featurematrix/
More than this though, PG has a really excellent community with a large amount of talented folks, available both individually and through OSS oriented companies https://www.postgresql.org/support/professional_support/ and willing to help out on Libera https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/migration-of-postgresq...

Testcontainers
Anyone have an opinion of embedded-postgres vs https://github.com/opentable/otj-pg-embedded (of which its a fork) for Clojure use?

What's the best approach for creating an embedded Postgresql to be used in production?
Can you elaborate a bit on this part? I'm still unsure why it's unadvised to do this, as I understood from other commenters it's because there is no official support for it correct? Why can't I use opentable for instance? https://github.com/opentable/otj-pg-embedded

SQLite Is Dynamically Typed (2020)
It's pretty easy to run embedded postgres on the JVM: https://github.com/opentable/otj-pg-embedded
The defaults create a temporary DB which is useful for dev & tests, but a pair of calls to .setCleanDataDirectory(false) and .setDataDirectory("...") will change that.
If you don't like the default postgres version, you may select one from https://search.maven.org/search?q=io.zonky.test.postgres or include your own postgres binary.

Pg_tmp – Run tests on an isolated, temporary PostgreSQL database
I've been using this embedded PostgreSQL thing for tests:
https://github.com/opentable/otj-pg-embedded
It's very simple to use and works perfectly. The one problem, and it's a significant one, is that it only ships one version of PostgreSQL, and adding another was difficult enough that I didn't.
What are some alternatives?
embedded-postgres - Java embedded PostgreSQL component for testing
testcontainers-go - Testcontainers for Go is a Go package that makes it simple to create and clean up container-based dependencies for automated integration/smoke tests. The clean, easy-to-use API enables developers to programmatically define containers that should be run as part of a test and clean up those resources when the test is done.
pypgdev - Python Postgres Development Tools
Testcontainers - Testcontainers is a Java library that supports JUnit tests, providing lightweight, throwaway instances of common databases, Selenium web browsers, or anything else that can run in a Docker container.
rqlite - The lightweight, distributed relational database built on SQLite.
integresql - IntegreSQL manages isolated PostgreSQL databases for your integration tests.
dqlite - Embeddable, replicated and fault-tolerant SQL engine.
localstripe - A fake but stateful Stripe server that you can run locally, for testing purposes.
cheapo_website - An experiment in production SQLite on render.com and fly.io
embedded-postgres - Run a real Postgres database locally on Linux, OSX or Windows as part of another Go application or test
mix - Maintain web mix gists
rush - Production-driven prototyping. This starter is setup in a production-friendly way and will setup tests + dev environment exactly like a live project will work. Works the same both on your laptop or Github CI, so you can go from hacking on your laptop to a full gitops environment.
