rqlite is a lightweight, distributed relational database, which uses SQLite as its storage engine. rqlite provides an easy-to-use, fault-tolerant store for your most important relational data. You can learn a lot more about rqlite at rqlite.io.

Release v8.16.0 adds support for S3-compatible storage systems, such as MinIO and Wasabi, for auto-backups and auto-restores. It also further improves backup performance generally, including support for automatically compressed backups. See the CHANGELOG for full details on this release, and check out the Assets section below for prebuilt binaries.

Getting started

Check out the Quick Start guide.

To download and run a single rqlite node follow the directions below. It's also very easy to run a rqlite cluster -- you can learn more by checking out the documentation.

If you wish to build rqlite from source, check out this documentation.

Docker

Run a single node as follows:

docker pull rqlite/rqlite
docker run -p4001:4001 rqlite/rqlite

Check out the rqlite Docker page for more details on running nodes via Docker.

Linux

Builds for a variety of CPU architectures are available. See the Assets section below.

To download and start rqlite, execute the following in a shell.

curl -L https://github.com/rqlite/rqlite/releases/download/v8.16.0/rqlite-v8.16.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz -o rqlite-v8.16.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar xvfz rqlite-v8.16.0-linux-amd64.tar.gz
cd rqlite-v8.16.0-linux-amd64
./rqlited ~/node.1

macOS

homebrew rqlite

Windows

rqlite can be built for Windows, and Windows compatibility is ensured via AppVeyor. However you may need to build a specific release yourself, though the top-of-tree build is available for download from AppVeyor. Check out the CI build for Windows for more details. Please note that I do not control the build process in AppVeyor and you download and use those binaries at your own risk.
