Good afternoon everyone! As a CS student I have to choose a database to work with for my final project. So my options are Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL. Which one will you choose and why. Pricing is not an issue because for students it's free. Have a nice day !

What are you doing with the DB? There's no reasonable way to make a blanket recommendation w/o knowing what your needs or goals are.

So use PG.

What language will you be writing in? Not all languages can access all databases.
