All databases have some unique characteristics and capabilities, but they are all pretty equal in the eyes of an ORM like ActiveRecord. In fact, that's one of the selling points of Rails -- you can write once and deploy mostly anywhere. At Penn, we use SQLite for our tests and CI, and Oracle for production and staging. Those could not be more different, yet we don't have to do too much to accommodate their differences.
