It might help to start this document with an expected usecase. I originally thought it was to allow clients that spoke the postgres (front-end / back-end protocol) protocol to connect to a FlightSQL server But now it is primarily to allow clients that speak FlightSQL to speak directly to a posgres server If we are interested in the other usecase, it might be interesting to implement a local "proxy" service that translated FEBE into FlightSQL requests. This has the benefit of allowing any client that speaks postgres FEBE (which are myriad) to access *any* server that supports FlightSQL (rather than just posgres). This is the approach google took, for running postgres febe against cloud spanner here: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/pgadapter -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
