Development of Lightstream and LightFS

The podcast episode covers the development and functionalities of Lightstream and LightFS. Lightstream was designed as a disaster recovery tool specifically for SQLite, offering features like continuous backup and incremental backups for transaction recovery. It was highlighted that Lightstream is intended for disaster recovery exclusively. On the other hand, LightFS is a distributed system tool, enabling functionalities like embedded replicas and low-latency data replication across regions. LightFS Cloud allows for streaming backups to Fly.io servers with point-in-time recovery. The distinction between the two tools lies in Lightstream's simplicity for disaster recovery and LightFS's expanded capabilities for replicated environments and failover scenarios.
