• Covering indexes
• CHECK, UNIQUE, NOT NULL, and FOREIGN KEY constraints.

• Up to 64-way joins
• LEFT, RIGHT, and FULL OUTER JOINs
• DISTINCT, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, HAVING, LIMIT, and OFFSET
• UNION, UNION ALL, INTERSECT, and EXCEPT
• A rich library of standard SQL functions
• Aggregate functions including DISTINCT aggregates
• Window functions
• UPDATE, DELETE, and INSERT (of course)
• Common table expressions including recursive common table expressions
• Row values
• UPSERT
• An advanced query planner
• Full-text search
• R-tree indexes
• JSON support
• The IS operator
• Table-valued functions
• REPLACE INTO
• VACUUM
• REINDEX
• The GLOB operator
• Hexadecimal integer literals
