Ignoring that leads to long postmortems about how your embedded db failed in a way you didn’t expect: https://blog.roblox.com/2022/01/roblox-return-to-service-10-28-10-31-2021/ https://blog.roblox.com/2022/01/roblox-return-to-service-10-... SQLite is good Rocksdb is good You don’t need pure go.

Development on this project has started in 2013 and scc shows "Estimated Cost to Develop (organic)" as $1.2M so for whatever that's worth it could be said to check those "5-7 years" and the "millions of dollars" boxes.

Keep in mind that this project isn’t creating a new SQL database from scratch. It’s literally ingesting SQLite’s C source code and spitting out Go. cznic’s done an absolutely incredible amount of work here. It’s not ready for prod yet, but it works and passes all of SQLite’s tests.

  Again, no, that's a different project by the same author: https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite

How many tens of millions of dollars were ploughed into SQLite?

  If you take into account the fact that Richard Hipp is not a billionaire whilst his software is used in almost all devices on (and not-on) the planet, his stuff is used by countless of megacorporations, etc, etc, then by my calculations: not nearly enough. His paycheck alone should be tens of millions of dollars. He should be making so much money that if he'd drop a 100 dollar bill it wouldn't be worth his time to pick it up.
