you should know that Oracle Express has some limitation , for example in total amount of memory that it uses and total number of processor that it can leverage.

If you have no problem about the above limitation (and perhaps other limitation that are mentioned in its data sheet) then i suggest you use Oracle instead of even Mysql 5 :-) .
you will have a broad range of options when you use oracle that you wont have if you use Mysql.
