    Apache Arrow is a multi-language toolbox for accelerated data interchange and in-memory processing

  • I'm not tuned into Arrow all that much. I've some of the about and stuff, but the code examples (to my eye) look really complex and complicated. [1]

    Could someone point me to a more glossy "arrow flight sql for dummies" examples? What I'm gleaning from this (or am I wrong?) is you could use a JDBC driver + arrow jdbc client and write... SQL? Or is it something a lot different?

    Is this the sort of thing where you could just add a plugin to postgres and be arrowified or something?

  • GraphQLCalcite

    Generating Federated GraphQL API's from Datasources with Apache Calcite

  • I have been experimenting in my free time with building a platform that autogenerates GraphQL CRUD API's on top of arbitrary datasources and lets you do federated/distributed queries and cross-datasource joins.

    I am using Apache Calcite for this, but am interested in potentially using FlightSQL and Substrait for better performance, since I am targeting OLTP workloads and it's latency-sensitive.
