>it's not easy to inspect or fix data in production the way we would with postgres.

I assume because you're using a remote socket connection from the client?

I haven't tried it in a serious setting yet, but I did play around with dqlite and was impressed. Canonical uses it as the backing data store for lxd. Basically sqlite with raft clustering and the ability for clients to connect remotely via a wire protocol. https://dqlite.io/

Yeah, it's common for all developers to connect to and query against prod postgres DBs via DataGrip or similar.

dqlite definitely looks interesting, but I worry it's a bit heavy given that our only use case for remote access is prod troubleshooting. I think I saw something recently where you could spin up a server on top of a sqlite file temporarily - that might be ideal for us.
