Just started working with db4o this week, and I must say that in the very small way that I am using it, its a pretty slick little database. XCopy deployable, no install required. Its just a file, and it can support client, server supposedly, but I am not sure how much I really care about that.
This kind of database is really nice for prototyping because all I have to do is throw the objects in there and they are persisted, bam! You query out using .net Predicate<T> or you can query by example, but I am really enjoying the predicate stuff.
Also, as I move to 'one db per application', this kind of database is becoming more and more attractive to me, because its so lightweight. I still don't know what its like to have one of these in production with an issue in it. So if you know, toss a comment my way.
