Database recommendations?

We have a number of very successful RoR sites that have been up and
running for almost a year now. We''re currently using MySQL as the
database, but seem to be running into its limitations, particularly
regarding it rather basic clustering support.

As a result we''re thinking about moving to another database. For
obvious
reasons, this isn''t something we want to do lightly!

To that end, I''d be very grateful for any recommendations regarding
database engines and RoR. Are there any lurking "nasties" if we move
to
(say) Oracle? Sybase? I''d very much welcome any advice/war stories from
anyone who''s made a similar switch!

Thanks in advance for your help!
