<title>High Reliability</title> <tcl>hd_keywords {high-reliability}</tcl> <fancy_format> <p> SQLite is a high-reliability storage solution. It does not give problems. It just works. <p> The high-reliability of SQLite is proven in practice. SQLite has been used without problems in multiple billions of smart-phones, IoT devices, and desktop applications, around the world, and for over a decade. <p> SQLite responds gracefully to system errors. Obscure out-of-memory and I/O errors are reported back up to the application. These error reporting paths are all carefully tested to ensure they will always work. <p> SQLite is resilient in the face of corrupt inputs, including maliciously designed database files and SQL strings. Extensive fuzz-testing ensures that corrupt inputs will not lead to crashes or undefined behavior, but will instead cause sensible errors to be reported back to the application. <p> SQLite is built using a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DO-178B|DO-178B]-inspired process. The [testing|testing standards] for SQLite are among the highest for commercial software. <p> SQLite is [copyright|open-source] but it is not open-contribution. All the code in SQLite is written by experts. The project does not accept "pull requests" or other code from anonymous passers-by on the internet. <p> All of these factors combine to make SQLite a very trouble-free software library.
