Which database to use? or XML?

so I am working on a server asset tool for our company, this will be a web based tool, perl/CGI.

each record will have server name, serial number, os type, rack number and such.

then we will have a page for searching, by serial number of host name or whatever...

this will end up with about 1000 records.



I am not too keen on using a full SQL database, I would rather use some kind of flat file.
this make us less dependent on the DBA team.



the question is what kind of database to use, or do I need a database at all?
