rqlite is a lightweight, distributed relational database, which uses SQLite as its storage engine. rqlite provides an easy-to-use, fault-tolerant store for critical relational data.
Release 4.1.0 includes some minor enhancements and bug fixes. See the CHANGELOG for full details. And if you wish to build rqlite from source, check out this documentation.
