You can get support for the big databases and Oracle in particular
from the SOCI-Ada project, now fully incorporated into SOCI:

http://soci.sourceforge.net/doc/languages/ada/index.html

Note: SOCI does not use ODBC to connect to databases like Oracle or
PostgreSQL - their native client APIs are used instead, which is much
easier in terms of configuration. ODBC also exists as a separate
backend, although with the possibility to use more direct methods for
most popular databases, it is much less used.
