If your application exceeds the capacity of a single server (e.g. a Java Web Service that is backed by a database), do you see SQLite as a useful solution for that case?

That seems like when you'd need a standalone database, no?

If you think the capacity will never exceed that one standalone database. If not, you'll need to plan for sharding anyway, in which case sqlite can work just fine.
