cowsql is a C library that implements an embeddable and replicated
|
|
SQL database engine with high availability and automatic failover.
|
|
|
|
cowsql extends SQLite with a network protocol that can connect
|
|
together various instances of your application and have them act as
|
|
a highly-available cluster, with no dependency on external databases.
|
|
|
|
The name "cowsql" loosely refers to the "pets vs. cattle" concept,
|
|
since it's generaly fine to delete or rebuild a particular node of
|
|
an application that uses cowsql for data storage.
|
|
|
|
cowsql is a fork of Canonical's dqlite project, which was originally
|
|
written by cowsql's author himself while working at Canonical.
