Why are there so many Database management systems? I am not an DB expert and I’ve never thought about using another Database other than mySQL.
Programming languages offer different paradigms, so it makes sense to choose a specific language for your purpose.
What are the factors in choosing a specific Database management system ?

I know next to nothing about non-relational DBMSs: NoSQL, MongoDB, db4o, CouchDB, BigTable. I’d recommend a different question to address those, since their aims are different than traditional RDBMSs.
