I'd like to connect up a database to Zope, but have no real database experience. My choice is between MySQL and PostgreSQL.

Is there any difference between them from Zope's POV?

If you use PostgreSQL, I recommend the ZPsycopgDA database adapter. And for goodness sakes, be sure to tune PostgreSQL. The default settings are perfect for a 486 with 16MB of RAM. Many of us have access to a bit more power. I've gotten a 5 to 10-fold increase in performance with proper tuning.
