Oracle has an internal prototype implementation for the Oracle Database that is asynchronous all the way down so we are confident that this is implementable. This prototype has two purposes: 1) demonstrate that the API is implementable, 2) actually run sample code to test the usability of the API. Management is currently unwilling to release this prototype for public use, but that may change.

There have been forum posts from a few folks suggesting efforts to implement ADBA. We hope one or more of those efforts is successful and look forward to any feedback.
