Overview

Selekt is a Kotlin and familiar Android SQLite database library that by default wraps the community edition of SQLCipher, an SQLite extension that provides 256-bit AES encryption of database files. Selekt realises the maximum concurrency offered by SQLite3: When enabled for WAL-journal mode, "readers do not block writers and a writer does not block readers. Reading and writing can proceed concurrently."

The Selekt project is used to securely and efficiently store data in the Bloomberg Professional application for Android.
