Surely this is a good starting point:


"The libsqlfs library implements a POSIX style file system on top of
an SQLite database. It allows applications to have access to a full
read/write file system in a single file, complete with its own file
hierarchy and name space. This is useful for applications which needs
structured storage, such as embedding documents within documents, or
management of configuration data or preferences. Libsqlfs can be used
as an shared library, or it can be built as a FUSE (Linux File System
in User Space) module to allow a libsqlfs database to be accessed via
OS level file system interfaces by normal applications. "
