I though that, thus I emphasised the question  ;)

I have an idea how to solve that  - it's basically, a design question:
Using template POLICIES for the objects realising the communication 
between server and client.
For an embedded DBMS, a policy will be chosen such that it directly 
maps member function calls.
For crossing the server/client boundary, a RPC policy will be used.
Note that the interface is the same.
However, it would be beyond the scope here, to give a full overview of 
that idea.
