You didn't specify whether you wanted to stick with Oracle or not.
If you do, maybe have a look at the odbc or mxodbc modules.  If you
don't then please have a look at gadfly (if your database can fit
into virtual memory all at once -- gadfly is in-memory, but honestly
it's the most portable single sql implementation in existence, speaking
as the humble author :) ).
