What's Good

Apache-2.0. Continuous SQLite WAL replication to S3-compatible object storage or local paths. Restore by pointing at a replica. Ops binary, not a new query engine.

The Catch

Ops/replication beside SQLite/Turso/PocketBase — not a new database. You still pick the SQLite host. Distinct from Turso (libSQL edge) and PocketBase (BaaS binary).

Verdict

Apache-2.0 SQLite WAL stream. Replication tool, not a DB product.
