Hi and thank you for your request!

I haven't touched AIS Logger for many years since I'm not using it actively any more (I don't even have access to a proper AIS receiver nowadays).

In theory, it should be really easy to support generic SQL backends like MySQL & friends. Nothing exotic at all is happening with the DB, just a bunch of inserts really. I'm not sure if I will take the time to investigate this further, but I can certainly help if you want to go ahead and do it yourself. Is there a specific use case where another database instead of SQLite would be preferable?

I'm considering using it in combination with an existing php/mysql application. It will help is ais-logger can insert it directly into the same database.
