Another option might be to use MLSQL:

MLSQL uses JDBC.  There is a JDBC-ODBC bridge driver that ships with the JDK 
that you could use.

Subject: [MarkLogic Dev General] MarkLogic and MS Access database communication

Hi everybody,

how would one go about connecting an Access database to a MarkLogic
database for the purpose of retrieving information (read-only, no
insertion nor updates)? Is this feasible, a crazy idea, or actually
trivial?

The background behind this question is this: We currently plan the
move of an MS SQL Server database to MarkLogic. (Of course, this means
that the data model will change considerably, from row-based data to a
hierarchical structure.) The SQL database of today has a large number
of Access databases accessing it via ODBC to retrieve data for
specialized purposes. We need to continue to provide some kind of
access to these MS Access databases.

Thanks in advance for your help!

cheers,
Jakob.
