Maybe you can use SQlite3 in a persistent volume?

Hi everyone - I���m wondering what is the recommended way to save some simple user data for a Pharo application I would like to run on the cloud (probably initially digital ocean, but could be AWS if it came to it).

Initially I thought I might try and run my little app in Digital ocean (I followed someone���s steps a few years ago, and had a simple seaside app running quite well) - so I was thinking of starting there.

I know there is Sven���s P3 - but I���m not sure I���m ready to run and maintain a SQL database for a simple application, but could be persuaded it its simple to setup with little maintenance. Would mongo be a suggestion - is that easy to setup and run? (And is that Voyage?).

Possibly I could even use image persistence, and fuel out a Dictionary from time to time - but I think that might be a little bit too belt and braces for me.

Is there something that gives a little table of tradeoffs with some simple ways to get started?
