Network Links can embed db-resources from such a script from a parent KML file. Another option would be to use Geoserver or gdal/ogr or FME (commercial). Many GIS also provide KML output, as an example, since you already use QGIS, there is a KML export plugin from QGIS. Hope this helps as a starter.
