Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install perl-ORLite on Fedora 36.

What is perl-ORLite

SQLite is a light weight single file SQL database that provides an excellent platform for embedded storage of structured data. However, while it is superficially similar to a regular server-side SQL database, SQLite has some significant attributes that make using it like a traditional database difficult. For example, SQLite is extremely fast to connect to compared to server databases (1000 connections per second is not unknown) and is particularly bad at concurrency, as it can only lock transactions at a database-wide level. This role as a super-fast internal data store can clash with the roles and designs of traditional object-relational modules like Class DBIx system that is designed specifically for SQLite and is aligned with its idiosyncrasies. ORLite is an object-relation system specifically for SQLite that follows many of the same principles as the series of modules and has a design that aligns directly to the capabilities of SQLite.
