	Since Python is a (byte-code) interpreted programming language in its
own right, you could design some interprocess communication protocol, write
handlers for said protocol in Ada and Python, and run the Python stuff in a
separate process.

	Or, you study the section of the Python manual regarding embedding the
language in another application -- and write an interface layer in Ada to
access the embedded mode API (which is documented for C language
programming, so your interface layer is going to look a lot like a binding
to any other C-language library):
https://docs.python.org/3/extending/embedding.html

	Of course, you'll need the proper db-api adapter for Python to use
whatever DBMS you are targeting.
