Self-contained, serverless SQL database engine — a single small library that is likely the most widely deployed database in the world, embedded in every browser, phone and countless applications. Its public-domain code and decades-long stability guarantee make it a model of software meant to last.
The Preservation Rating scores how well this entry is archived — not how good the software is. It's calculated automatically from what's already on this page: working mirrors, documentation, a reproducible build, a clearly identified license, and complete metadata. Nothing here is entered by hand; it updates itself whenever the entry changes.
