> Yes, the ADBC driver wraps libpq and should let you work with other databases that use the PostgreSQL wire protocol, with the caveat that it has to convert the data (of course). I don't think I realized this -- I will check it out. Thank you @lidavidm > I suppose you have a third goal: using the PostgreSQL protocol/drivers/clients as the lingua franca, placing it sort of in between the roles of Flight SQL and JDBC/ODBC? I don't think anyone's actively working towards that. I would phrase our goal as "we are building a server (InfluxDB IOx) and we want to allow connections from as many clients as possible but implement only FlightSQL on the server". Since **many** existing clients, for better or worse, use the postgres wire protocol, having some solution for them to speak to IOx without native FEBE support is compelling from our perspective -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
