Apache Calcite is a dynamic data management framework.
+It contains many of the pieces that comprise a typical
+database management system but omits the storage primitives.
+It provides an industry standard SQL parser and validator,
+a customisable optimizer with pluggable rules and cost functions,
+logical and physical algebraic operators, various transformation
+algorithms from SQL to algebra (and the opposite), and many
+adapters for executing SQL queries over Cassandra, Druid,
+Elasticsearch, MongoDB, Kafka, and others, with minimal
+configuration.
