> Ease of deployment and operation are also important, and that's an area in which rqlite excels

Amen. I've been building something appliance-like where I want to support clustering but I don't want to manage a database cluster inside the project.

Rqlite is so easy to run either stand-alone or clustered. It's a godsend.

And when people want postgres or whatever, I let them bring their own database. It's not hard to abstract a database storage layet if you plan ahead.

But if you want it to 'just work' rqlite is doing that with flying colors.
