Very much so for SQLite, but not so for UnQLite IMHO, which is a "mostly abandoned" project of changing SQLite3 to use a new key-value store back-end, thus create in the process a new "SQLite4". The original was lead by Dr Hipp, who later concentrated back on SQLite3, and that project was basically "ripped-off" by some random people.
That's interesting, thank you.
You shouldn't associate the latter with the former, or claim it's battle tested. --DD
My claim was based on UnQLite using the same storage abstraction layer as SQLite. I am very confident in that layer. The stuff UnQLite adds on top, that could lose data for sure, but it'll do it much less frequently and in much fewer of the usual cases thanks to using the SQLite abstraction layer.
