We are building tonbo: https://github.com/tonbo-io/tonbo , An embedded KV database allows to use S3 as storage backend, and we are trying to implement SQLite virtual table on it: https://github.com/tonbo-io/sqlite-tonbo a real pay-as-you-go DB.

That’s really cool! I’m personally really interested in serverless DB offerings. I’m not sure if yours scales well, but I always seem to hit the limits of a single RDBMS instance at some point as a product matures.

There are plenty of ways to scale out traditional RDBMS, but serverless offerings make it so easy to scale out.

Thanks, easy-to-scale is the first thing we consider, also using S3 as a shared storage service makes architecture easy to achieve this.
