You can use any of the supported ones. Without knowing how "high" your
data volume is or will be, how many simultaneous users access the
application, nor the OS on which it runs I'll still recommend my favorite:
PostgreSQL. It's F/OSS, enterprise-class, suitable for a single user, and
has outstanding support on the maillists. I've used it for 20 years and am
now running version 9.6.3 for my own (and client) applications.

Hi,

Like Rich suggested start with Postgres. It's very powerful and has first class support in Django.

PostgreSQL or Oracle is the most "robust" of supported DB. (Certainly an opinion, but I doubt its a very controversial one.)

If you had Oracle, you'd probably be required to use it so I'm assuming you can choose... which means you want PostgreSQL (free and very, very nearly as good - better for some things - than Oracle). It requires installation, setup & some administration, unlike some of the other options, but if you want scalability, reliability, flexibile (and the "fancy" stuff like replication, "atomicity", "integrity", hot/cold failover, etc) then you have no other viable choice unless there's a  huge budget involved (for Oracle).
