Using JDBC on Google App Engine (GAE)

GAE doesn't support JDBC but is there a way to use it anyway? Is there a way to connect to an external Oracle db to store structured information using the RDBMS pattern? Is the a wrapper or a runtime lib that makes it possible to connect to an external RDBMS using JDBC?

I don't want to use GAE's in-house MySQL cloud hack.

You cannot open sockets on GAE, that's why you cannot open a JDBC connection for any outside RDBMS.

BTW, today they launched a trusted tester program for sockets on GAE: http://googleappengine.blogspot.com.br/2012/09/app-engine-172-released.html

But I believe this is not the case they are trying to address
