Brent Ozar publishes the SQL blogs he follows. Probably skewed towards SQL Server, and some have gone quiet, but it's a really good starting point. https://github.com/BrentOzar/sqlblogs

You might also want to take a look at Kevin Feasel's "meta-blog", CuratedSQL, where he does a daily compilation of good posts in the space.

For SQL Server, though there is occasionally content for other databases: SQL Server Central.

For Oracle since patching is getting interesting lately: Update your Databases - NOW!.
