Take a look at libgql:

 The CLI (call level interface) library GQL provides an
 abstraction of a SQL database, which means it is provides
 an API for all (or most) possible SQL databases. It achieves
 this by using individual drivers for different databases.

 The API of GQL is closely modelled after JDBC (Java Database
 Connectivity).

You can wrap it for Octave using the instructions at
