    Deploying umbraco 10 to azure web app

    Hi I am trying to upload my umbraco 10 installation to azure. Can I upload umbraco to azure with SQLite? I looked at the documentation but it is not mentioned whether I can use SQLite.

    SQLite can't be used in umbraco for the azure environment; I set up an Azure SQL database and used usync to manage the sync between them

    Morning! I didn't know this was the case. Do you know why? TIA!

    SQLite can be used for Umbraco with Azure. We have several websites running this configuration.

    I think it's something to do with how Azure handles the storage on app services.

    The biggest hint that SQLite is only for the development environment was the fact that the SQLite connection sting is in the appsettings.Development.json

    I'm trying to find information about SQLite on Azure. Can you point me in the direction of the documentation that says it can't be used in production?

    I couldn't find the link. Sorry. I will change my answer to the azure environment only. Maybe on other hosting providers, SQLite will run OK.

    I believe you can use AZURE with SQLite but it will be single application without option to scale

    I'm going to try it :-)

    We have a small website for which SQLite would be appropriate, if it works.

    I will report back.

    Did you get it to work and how did it perform? Cannot find anything on SQLite and Azure anywhere :)

    We did try it and it did work.

    The SQLite database is stored in the filesystem within the website.

    However we had problems with stability - the site crashed once every couple of weeks with the SQLite database being corrupted as the culprit. In every case we were able to get the database back online again.

    This kind of thing doesn't happen with SQL Server so we have gone back to that.

    I would not personally recommend using SQLite for anything but a development site or the tiniest of blog sites, although other users report perfect stability and performance on large multi-user sites.

    Gordon.
