People like to believe that they have &quot;big problems&quot; and that they need large scale solutions. If they ever manage to get it working correctly they now have big system administration problems on top of their existing problem. Where as doing backups, creating staging&#x2F;testing environments or moving servers can be done with cp or scp when running SQLite.<p>Agreeably if you pick SQLite and ever manage to reach a scale where it&#x27;s no longer an appropriate solution, then you will have more trouble migrating of it.
