If you use C as programming language, try sqlite. If you use Java, use H2.
But a database isn’t always the best solution. So you should also consider something more simple, like a CSV or XML file, especially if the data rarely changes or when you only append.
Note that there is no generic answer to “what is the best option” since each case is slightly different. I suggest to build a small prototype to get a feeling what works and what doesn’t. A technology might be great but if you can’t wrap your mind around it, your code will be much more buggy than using an “inferior” technology which you can handle well.
