SQLite is a C library that implements an embeddable SQL database engine.
Programs that link with the SQLite library can have SQL database access
without running a separate RDBMS process. The distribution comes with a
standalone command-line access program (sqlite) that can be used to
administer an SQLite database and which serves as an example of how to
use the SQLite library. SQLite is not a client library used to connect to
a big database server. SQLite is the server. The SQLite library reads and
writes directly to and from the database files on disk.
