I'm not sure how relevant it is to your question, but I'm using org-mode in emacs for all my documentation needs. Computers are so fast these days, so that there is almost impossible for a single person to generate more data in e.g. a year than may be found quickly enough by brute force search. I.e. for a database like you propose, one or more linked text files in org-mode should be more than sufficient. org-mode also comes with advanced search options, though I have not yet used them:
