Description
The official Tango Database is written in C++ and requires MariaDB as backend.
PyTango contains its own Database implementation, which should work as a drop-in replacement. It stores data using SQLite so it has no external dependencies, making it easier to run.
This implementation isn't new but didn't get much support in the past years and was in a broken state. In the past month, there was some effort to update it. A fork was even created to move it outside PyTango repository for faster development: pytango-db.
This talk will go through a few use cases for local development and CI.
