Solutions

SQLite architectures for edge, AI, and cloud.

Use SQLite locally for speed and reliability, sync with SQLite Cloud, PostgreSQL, or Supabase, and add AI-native capabilities through SQLite extensions.

Use cases

One SQLite layer, many production patterns.

Each solution combines local SQLite, CloudSync, SQLite Cloud capabilities, and focused extensions. Pick the use case closest to your architecture, then start with the smallest set of building blocks.

Local-first software

Offline-first apps

Build mobile, desktop, browser, field, POS, and SaaS workflows that keep writing locally with zero perceived latency, then sync when the network is available.

Capabilities

  • Local SQLite writes on every device
  • CRDT-based conflict resolution
  • CloudSync to SQLite Cloud, PostgreSQL, or Supabase
  • Row-Level Security and authentication for synced data
  • Snapshots, backups, and operational visibility in the cloud

Software agents

AI agents with synchronized memory

Give every agent a local SQLite database for notes, tasks, embeddings, and state, then sync memory across workers, users, devices, and cloud systems.

Capabilities

  • Persistent local memory for every agent
  • Markdown-aware chunking and hybrid retrieval
  • Shared memory sync for agent fleets
  • MCP access to tools and external systems
  • Cloud coordination, analytics, API keys, and team access

Private intelligence

Private edge AI and RAG

Run inference, embeddings, vector search, and retrieval where the data already lives. Sync only the state that needs coordination or analytics.

Capabilities

  • On-device model inference and embeddings
  • Fast vector search in ordinary SQLite tables
  • Local RAG without a remote vector database
  • Privacy-first workflows for sensitive data
  • Optional cloud sync for shared knowledge and governance

Devices and fleets

Robotics and IoT fleets

Keep robots, sensors, vehicles, and embedded systems autonomous when connectivity is weak, then sync telemetry, state, and decisions back to the cloud.

Capabilities

  • SQLite on devices close to generated data
  • Offline operation for weak or intermittent networks
  • Telemetry sync and fleet-wide cloud coordination
  • Edge Functions, webhooks, and REST APIs for automation
  • Local AI and analytics for real-time decisions

Bring your backend

PostgreSQL and Supabase teams

Keep PostgreSQL or Supabase as the central source of truth and add SQLite replicas at the edge for users, devices, browsers, and agents.

Capabilities

  • CloudSync without a SQLite Cloud hosting plan
  • SQLite replicas for latency-sensitive clients
  • Sync only the tables and rows each client needs
  • Offline-first UX without replacing your backend
  • Optional migration path to SQLite Cloud when you want a managed SQLite platform

Managed platform

Managed SQLite backend

Use SQLite Cloud when you want us to run the database platform: storage, APIs, authentication, security, access control, functions, and operations.

Capabilities

  • Managed SQLite Cloud nodes with production operations
  • REST API, Authentication APIs, API Keys, and Users and Roles
  • AES256 encryption, Row-Level Security, and role-level access
  • Edge Functions, user-defined functions, webhooks, and MCP Server
  • Snapshots, backups, Drizzle Studio, vector search, and AI features

Shared state

Realtime collaboration

Create collaborative editors, multiplayer tools, live dashboards, and team workflows that can keep local state responsive and sync shared changes.

Capabilities

  • Local-first editing with automatic merge behavior
  • Cloud coordination for shared projects and teams
  • Webhooks and events for reactive workflows
  • Authentication, members invitation, and Row-Level Security
  • REST APIs for web, mobile, and service integrations

Local analytics

Embedded analytics

Run analytical scans, grouped summaries, semantic search, and local dashboards inside SQLite, then sync results or source data for cloud-scale analysis.

Capabilities

  • Column-oriented analytics inside embedded SQLite
  • Local dashboards over telemetry, logs, events, and app data
  • Vector search and AI enrichment next to operational data
  • Cloud APIs, webhooks, and snapshots for reporting workflows
  • Central coordination when local analytics need shared truth

Cloud platform

The managed layer for coordination, security, and scale.

SQLite Cloud can be your fully managed SQLite backend, or CloudSync can connect local SQLite databases to PostgreSQL or Supabase when those systems remain your source of truth.
