Julian Hyde commented on CALCITE-836:
-------------------------------------

We could expose the extra properties as a (name, value) map, and define some 
properties that we suggest every Avatica provider implements. It's a shame that 
the DatabaseMetaData API doesn't allow any extension properties. Rather than 
adding an API to DatabaseMetaData, maybe we can make clever use of the 
{{unwrap}} method, like this:

{code}
Connection connection;
DatabaseMetaData metaData = connection.getMetaData();
Properties properties = metaData.unwrap(Properties.class);
String serverVersion = properties == null ? null : 
properties.getProperty("server.version");
{code}


> Provide a way for the Avatica client to query the server versions

> Currently there doesn't seem to be a way for Avatica clients to find out the 
> Avatica RPC protocol version and versions of other server components.
> The use case here is to allow the Apache Phoenix clients to request the 
> Avatica version, Phoenix version and HBase version from the Phoenix Query 
> Server.
