  • SQLite the only database you will ever need in most cases

    But I'm not sure I did it right, because I don't have much experience working below the level of a PaaS. I'm an application developer and I do not want to become a release engineer. I resent even having to learn Docker. :-)

    Anyway, if somebody wants to nitpick my Flask+SQLite deployment, I'd really appreciate it, because it seems really silly that people have to keep writing this stuff from scratch when 90% of hobby sites have the exact same needs. https://github.com/irskep/cheapo_website

    Thank you for the thoughtful response.

    I was looking at https://github.com/irskep/cheapo_website from commenter irskep above, and they make a nice point that render.com has automatic daily backups, solving 4)

    However, in another comment they mention "You can't(?) run migrations from another process" and that "people don't talk about the completely ordinary need to run migrations on a database".

    I guess this is also the piece that I'm missing. How do I run migrations? Do I deploy a new version with the migration and temporarily take down the server? I'm glad to do that.

    I guess I'm also walking through this because---as I said---I'd love just to switch to SQLite but I'm still not sure how many simple non-esoteric gotchas will pop up.
