Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

Need a client/server database to store your data securely and reliably? Download the free Oracle Database 10g Express Edition. It stores up to 4 GB of data, and it's free to develop, deploy, and distribute. It's intended to have a small footprint, so it's simple to administer (compared to the enterprise level, that is), yet robust and powerful like the other editions of Oracle. It's the winner of the LinuxWorld Product Excellence Award for Best Database Solution for 2006. It was also a Microsoft "Best of TechEd Finalist" for 2006.

When and if it ever becomes necessary to upgrade to a larger database engine, the work done in Oracle 10g Express will easily convert to the larger Oracle 10g database engines virtually effortlessly, because it's designed for scalability.
