“Keep it simple”—something I keep repeating to everyone I work with. I myself have been bitten too often by the temptation to use the latest tech, even when a trusted but less “sexy” alternative was available that could do the job perfectly.
But this post could have been made a lot simpler by using SQLite. Do away with all the docker stuff, a simple file- based database will do for starters. If you need concurrent access later, it will be easy to port the DB to Postgres or similar.

Recently I've had some really great success using SQLite on an embedded project with decent enough support for concurrency using busy_timeout [https://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/busy_timeout.html] and WAL [https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html].
