Yup! I'm currently running a b2c solution for a client that's grossing ~$3 million/year using Python + sqlite3 behind nginx.

I work for another shop that scolds me for even suggesting using something else than k8s. How can a persistent file system possibly scale? Lol. Ironically they're grossing -$3 million/year.
