Many different databases have their strengths and weaknesses. I suggest that you check out each database's website and read the articles and comments. Also do some searching on Google or another search engine. You'll find positive and negative comments that you wont find on the orginization's website.
This should give you a good idea of which db to use for your needs and requirements. It all depends on what you're looking for. Just for note though MySQL is quite heavily used in many large production environments like Yahoo.com. It also won the highest marks for a non-comercial db in the latest eWeek database test. ~Matt Quoting "E.
