You could move your server closer to the database server (in terms of hops). For example, if the database is in California and you are in New York, you could get better performance by moving your server to a data center in California.
Honestly, there is not much you can do if you do not lease the bandwidth between your server and the database server. You can't control network traffic across the Internet, you can't control bandwidth, you can't control latency, and the more hops between your server and the database server, the more uncertainty (and lack of control).
If the database if fairly static, you could replicate or cache a copy locally near your server; but as Pludi mentioned, without more details, there is not much else to offer.

nsquery
nsquery(1) General Commands Manual nsquery(1)
Name
nsquery - name server query command
Syntax
/usr/ucb/nsquery [ lookup ] [ host ] [ server ]
Description
The command provides an interface to obtain host name and address information.
If you specify host, the command obtains information about the specified host. If no host is specified, the command obtains information
about the local host system.
If you specify server, the command queries the BIND server that you specify. If you do not specify a server, the command queries the
default BIND server.
Options
lookup Retrieves the host name, Internet Protocol (IP) address, and aliases of the specified host. If no host or server is specified, the
command obtains information about the local system from the default BIND server.
If you do specify the lookup option, the command obtains the information about the BIND server and host specified (or their
defaults). If the system from which you issue the command is a BIND server, and you do not specify the lookup option, information
about only that server is retrieved.
Files
