I'm not aware of any other product having an "add-on" besides
EnterpriseDB (PostgreSQL), Firacle (Firebird) and perhaps Ants.
Typically cross-translation is done by the respective migration
workbenches provided by the DBMS vendor or third party as a one-off
process rather than on the fly. E.g. SwisSQL (http://www.swissql.com/).
mySQL is SQL/PSM based and so is/will be Derby.
