+1 SQL Server.

Douglas Purdy (http://www.douglaspurdy.com/) is the guy at Microsoft to talk
to if you have questions. He's been on a giant OData kick lately. I have
played around with it some recently and it's pretty decent, the only
complaint I had was that on the client side the linq provider was pretty
limited in the types of queries you could do. That's pretty reasonable still
though.

You can create the OData provider quite easily by using the Entity Framework
ORM tool. Which will give you everything you need to have in order to
serialize / deserialize your data into objects on the server. There are
hooks that you can add to filter queries using linq and add custom code for
other CRUD operations. The security is pretty flexible and you can integrate
it with OpenID in a fairly straight forward fashion.

So far I've been pretty impressed.
