SQLite, Turso, and the State of Databases with Glauber Costa

Today we have Glauber Costa on the show, who's the CEO and founder at Turso. They provide a managed SQLite service with some really interesting capabilities that's changing some of the application patterns you can do.

He shares a lot of really good technical stuff on Twitter. He worked in the kernel, he worked on high-performance databases at ScyllaDB, and now he's working on Turso. He also has a great and interesting podcast, the Save File, which is about developers and religion.

Glauber had some great thoughts on the future of databases, including what the future of NoSQL is like and whether we'll see vector databases as a separate category or as a feature of general-purpose databases. We’ve seen arguments both ways, but he was the most effective at changing our mind.
