gollark: Well, it's dynamically typed, it has nice things like full text search (which is also apiaristic in a few ways...), it has "recursive common table expressions", I can't immediately think of anything else.
gollark: Unlike most, its databases are one file and it's a small C library you can embed in programs.
gollark: SQLite is an *implementation* of much of this standard, plus weird extra features.
