Exactly. That's what we do, too, because SQLite is part of all major Linux distributions and comes with the least amount of baggage attached. Anyone can type “sqlite3 foobar.db” and be in business, without having to set up a database server, user accounts, etc. Which is not to say that the database servers are bad (I personally prefer PostgreSQL over MySQL) but as far as I'm concerned their specifics aren't exactly standard fare for junior system administrators.
