Thanks Florian for the reply.
I already tried JRuby and JDBC but I was thinking that since JDBC is 
really for java, my code will then be only run in JRuby, making my 
application requires their runtime which for me is not ideal and there's 
is no point anymore of migrating my old java application to ruby. I'm 
looking for a library which works like JDBC. I googled around and found 
Ramen but it only works now for few database. Can you name some library?
