"Hmm,

You're not going to get a GUI but:

BerkleyDB (http://www.sleepycat.com) 
- Scales beyond your wildest dreams, 
- Is faster than any other DB in this market segment 
- Is used in more critical applications than just about any other
non-relational database.
- Has commercial support if you need it.

However before you go further I have some very serious questions.

1. If you need something massively fast, scalable and without server
overhead you're not going to have a lot of admin, but you are going to
do a lot of programming. If this is the case, then why do you need a
GUI?"

snip.

Thanks for the thoughts. Off to to do some research.
