metaperl commented on issue #8874: [SIP-33] Proposal for Removing SQLite Support for Metadata Databases
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/issues/8874#issuecomment-573163646
 
 
   > Users who leverage SQLite in production will be required to migrate their data to a different supported metadata database, either MySQL or Postgres. This can be accomplished via third-party tools.
   
   # This is an unactionable statement. 
   
   People who have hundreds of users relying on the current metastore have a single vague sentence to migrate their work? No link to a 3rd party tool? No information on what to do with it?
   
   # the sentence does not paint a complete picture
   
   There will have to be changes made in Superset as well, presumably to the `SQLALCHEMY_URI` and perhaps other places **and every place in Superset that must be changed must be documented in a way that a devops person can take action on it**.
   
   # I cannot upvote this in good conscience
   
   Until the vague, imprecise, unactionable statement is replaced with *This can be accomplished like so* where "like so" is a link to a cookie-cutter, color-by-numbers, easy-to-follow step-by-step set of instructions about how to make the transition to Postgres.
