SQLite (www.sqlite.org) is an embedded database engine that can handle
large databases and a substantial subset of SQL-92. Easily extended with C
function callbacks to your code. Comes bundled with PHP 5, and requires no
seperate database server to administer.

Else, if you need a multi-user database, I'd second PostgreSQL suggested
by most people so far.
