About the project

Litestream is a background tool for incremental replication of SQLite databases to a file or S3, designed for disaster recovery. It works through the SQLite API and does not corrupt the database.

Useful for
  • Set up continuous replication of a SQLite database to S3 for disaster recovery
  • Restore a database from a replica after a failure
  • Run Litestream as a background process alongside a SQLite-based application
