SQLite on Rails: From rails new to 50k concurrent users and everything in between by Stephen Margheim Final Learn how to build and deploy a Rails application using SQLite with hands-on exercises! Together we will take a brand new Rails application and walk through various features and enhancements to make a production-ready, full-featured application using only SQLite. We will take advantage of SQLite's lightweight database files to create separate databases for our data, job queue, cache, error monitoring, etc. We will install and use a SQLite extension to build vector similarity search. We will setup point-in-time backups with Litestream. We will also explore how to deploy your application. By the end of this workshop, you will understand what kinds of applications are a good fit for SQLite, how to build a resilient SQLite on Rails application, and how to scale to 50k+ concurrent users.
