If your database is going to be fairly small it might be OK, but in my experience sqlite ground my website to a halt once the database had a few megs of data in it. It really didn't take much data at all to become ridiculously slow.

I am working on a small project using the django framework. I have a
choice of backends - mysql, postgress, sqlite. The web site will have
low traffic, and 90% of the assets are scanned images (pdf, tiff, jpeg),
so they will be stored in a file system and not in the database. The
framework/database are for tags and search terms (ocr from pdfs) and
user login credentials.

I am inclined to use the sqlite backend so the site uses fewer resources
and to make backups easier. However, I have never used sqlite in a
production environment. According to the sqlite website, it is
production ready.

Would you recommend sqlite for a production website?

Thanks,

Mark
