MySQL or Postgres will do just fine.

Follow the rest of the LAMP architecture and go with mysql. Look into which internal tweaks and dbs to maximize performance ie innodb vs any other, based on how it will be used mostly (transactional, read-only etc). You are going open source with L)inux A)pache M)ySQL and P)hp. With Oracle you would be spending some serious money. Stick with the freebies and twink it based on how it will be used.
