The open source DB's are great but I'd also suggest you try some commercal RDBMS giants too:
Oracle www.oracle.com or direct download page at http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/oracle9i/software_index.htm Oracle 9i and 8i are both available for Linux as a download. You need to sign up for a free technet account to access the software but that's all... they don't spam you relentlessly either afterwards ! Sybase www.sybase.com or direct download page at http://www.sybase.com/detail_list/1,6902,2282,00.html DB2 IBM's database http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/download/category.jsp?s=s&cat=data&source=sd This has a database clustering version.... All have free for personal use Linux versions and are in more use globally in companies etc that the others... All have extensive online docs and newsgroups and forums abound.
