Database connectivity is a weakspot still. Haskell developers don't seem to use databases nearly as often as Java developers. We have several libraries for this, takusen and hdbc come to mind. Real-World Haskell documents using hdbc.
For what it's worth, we've had very good luck with Persistent. Even though it's not very enterprisey to base a product on an unseasoned library, it solved so many problems that we just couldn't ignore it.
Perhaps we should write something in the wiki that goes beyond the tutorial in the Yesod book.
Over in OCaml-land, I have taken it upon myself to address this: http://gaiustech.github.com/ociml/
Takusen already supports Oracle (and other rdbms) in a resource precise and good performance way, if that's what you're talking about implementing: http://projects.haskell.org/takusen/ Jason
