Litestream provides continuous SQLite backups by creating a config/litestream.yml file that defines replication targets to S3-compatible storage with sync intervals, snapshots, and retention policies. This ensures your Rails SQLite databases are backed up automatically without manual intervention.

Yes. Litestream supports per-database configuration, allowing you to set separate sync, snapshot, and retention policies for your primary production.sqlite3 and auxiliary databases like cache, queue, and cable databases in a single config/litestream.yml file.

You need Rails 8+, a config/litestream.yml with S3-compatible storage credentials, force-path-style enabled, defined sync and snapshot intervals, retention settings, and integration with your deployment pipeline like Kamal 2 to automate backup processes.

Litestream integrates with Kamal 2 deployment pipelines through configuration in config/litestream.yml, enabling health checks and disaster-recovery commands to run automatically during deployment, ensuring backups are maintained across production releases.

Litestream allows you to define snapshot intervals for point-in-time recovery, retention windows to control backup lifespan, and retention-check intervals to validate policy compliance, with separate settings per database for granular control.

Yes. Litestream supports force-path-style configuration in config/litestream.yml for S3-compatible storage backends, allowing you to use path-style URLs instead of virtual-hosted-style when your storage provider requires it.
