A +database client can use the provided Flight SQL client to interact +with any database that supports the necessary endpoints. Review comment: Let's mention that Flight SQL clients decorate existing Flight client classes to add methods corresponding to the new RPC calls. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
