Relational databases on infrastructure you control: choose SQLite, MariaDB or PostgreSQL, understand the access you need, and keep your data where it belongs.

In testing, functionality present — helpers missing

Websites need data too

webDragon covers creating and operating websites. Many applications then need a database: perhaps SQLite for a single-host tool, MariaDB for a conventional PHP or Node.js application, or PostgreSQL because that is what the application uses. databaseDragon helps you make that next decision without making the database feature inseparable from the web stack.

  • Keep a small application self-contained with SQLite where that fits.
  • Run MariaDB or PostgreSQL locally for an application on the same Saphira host.
  • Allow a separate application server only the remote database access it genuinely needs.
  • Use dedicated credentials and record which application owns them.
