Well ZODB works very well fopr certain types of problem.
If you mean relational database, I've had good success with both MySQL and
SQL Server 7 on Windows. I have one app based on SQL Server which returns
multi-thousand row recordsets to Zope and caches them and it works fine -
it's extremely reliable.
Depends on your requirements and budget really - do you need to be able to
use stored procs, triggers, blah blah, or are you just looking to store a
bit of data in tabular form.
PostgreSQL, AFAIK, only runs on Windows under the Cygwin environment so it'd
probably be a bit more fiddly to deal with.
