README

Note: sqlite is a file based database, so this is an antipattern, this repo is just for learning how to build controllers and plugins on top of k8s. Use at your own risk :). If there is any interest, I can expand and add support for automatic backups, there might be some interest for Edge computing and IoT data collection.

KubeLiteDB

KubeLiteDB is an open-source project that provides a Kubernetes Custom Resource Definition (CRD) and operator for managing SQLite instances within a Kubernetes cluster. This project enables users to deploy and manage lightweight, ephemeral SQLite databases easily, leveraging Kubernetes' scalability and orchestration capabilities.

Features

• Custom Resource Definition (CRD): Define and manage SQLite instances using Kubernetes-native APIs.
• Lightweight Databases: Perfect for development, testing, edge computing, and microservices.
• Ephemeral and Persistent Storage: Support for both temporary and persistent storage configurations.
• Easy Deployment: Simplify database provisioning and management in your Kubernetes clusters.
• Scalability: Deploy multiple isolated SQLite instances with ease.
• Auto Backups: Configure the SQLite instances to automatically backup using cronjobs.

Use Cases

• Development and testing environments
• Edge computing and IoT data collection
• Microservices and serverless architectures
• Offline-first applications
• Local analytics and reporting

Getting Started

1. Install the CRD

   kubectl apply -f artifacts/crd.yaml
   

2. Deploy a SQLite Instance

   kubectl apply -f artifacts/example-sqlite-instance.yaml
