Definition
The term, in context
AI-assisted draft · approved dataset
Turso is an in-process SQL database engine written in Rust, originally built as a memory-safe rewrite of SQLite that compiles SQL into bytecode for an internal virtual machine. It extends that same execution core with a Postgres-compatible front end, positioning one shared virtual machine as a common execution layer that multiple SQL dialects can compile onto.
