One of SQLite's most appealing aspects to me is using it as an application file format, as described in this article: https://www.sqlite.org/appfileformat.html

How does DuckDB compare in that aspect? Does it have the same kind of guarantees of robustness, incorruptibility and performance (especially reading/writing binary blobs) that SQLite does?

In any case: DuckDB looks great, nice work! Good to have more players in this space!

It is a goal of ours to become a standard multi-table storage format! However, today we are still in beta and have made some breaking changes in the last few releases. (Exporting from the old version, then reimporting your DB in the new allows you to upgrade!) Those should happen less often as we move forward (the storage format was genericized a bit and is more resilient to future enhancements now), and locking in our format amd guaranteeing backwards compatibility will occur when we go to 1.0!
