I also used to have this impression, I think I got this from Rails and Django docs, maybe you read something similar?

> Rails comes with built-in support for SQLite, which is a lightweight serverless database application. While a busy production environment may overload SQLite, it works well for development and testing. Rails defaults to using a SQLite database when creating a new project, but you can always change it later.

> By default, the configuration uses SQLite. If you’re new to databases, or you’re just interested in trying Django, this is the easiest choice. SQLite is included in Python, so you won’t need to install anything else to support your database. When starting your first real project, however, you may want to use a more scalable database like PostgreSQL, to avoid database-switching headaches down the road.

The Django docs word it better - the chief problem with SQLite is that it's a _local_ database. If you outgrow a single server, you will now need to also migrate your database to something that can handle multiple external clients, or else figure out another way of making writes on one server be available to read on the other servers.
