PostgreSQL and MySQL

Even though you can argue that MySQL is faster at blarting raw selects to the screen, as soon as you need transactions, subselects, stored procedures, referential integrity, scalability or a true BSD license, you run into problems.

The thing is even if you start off with MySQL, eventually sites grow and you start adding advanced features that need a more mature DB engine.
