Well, there is Bill Sinclair's Wood database, available from ftp://ftp.digitool.com/pub/

It's free. It provides persistent object but no transaction control.

It may be the easiest one to use with cl-http because you don't need to
write or maintain a foreign function interface.

There are some commerical databases too, but I am not familiar with those.
