Re: [weewx-user] SQLite vs. MySQL

2017-01-09 Thread Thomas Keffer
sqlite is also easier to backup. All its state is held in a single, regular, file. I've been using it for 10 years and 200 MB of data with no issues. The big advantage of MySQL over sqlite is with multi-user, high-transaction throughput. That's not applicable in the weewx context. -tk On Mon,

1) No - multiple stations will still require multiple databases. Weewx and its extensions work with both databases as far as I am aware 2) No - KISS principles would indicate SQLite as being preferable to MySQL, even though I use MySQL 3) Yes - weewx caters for both SQLite and MySQL with no
