I’m curious, was there a specific reason that FUSE was used instead of the FVS layer inside to SQLite itself? I realize that it would mean that a custom module would have to be loaded, and maybe that was undesirable. Full disclosure I have not read the link yet as I am a little pressed for time, but I will later tonight when I have time. If it’s mentioned in the readme, feel free to ignore me :) I ask because I have been building a VFS for SQLite to handle multiple distributed writers and replicating data blocks around to different places.



It's a good question. It's mainly about reducing friction for the end user. I wrote up a related response here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32243305
