It also gracefully handles leader elections, and tolerates failures of machines, including the leader. rqlite is compatible with Linux, OSX, and Microsoft Windows. ### Why? rqlite gives you the functionality of a [rock solid](http://www.sqlite.org/testing.html), fault-tolerant, replicated relational database, but with very **easy installation, deployment, and operation**. With it you've got a **lightweight** and **reliable distributed relational data store**. Think [etcd](https://github.com/coreos/etcd/) or [Consul](https://github.com/hashicorp/consul), but with relational data modelling also available.
