>
> Drill's existing client APIs are "industrial strength" - they provide full
> access to the sophisticated distributed, columnar RPCs which Drill uses
> internall. However, they are too complex for most client needs. Provide a
> simpler API optimized for clients: row-based result sets, synchronous, etc.
> At the same time, Drill clients must currently link with the same version of
> Drill code as is running on the Drill cluster. This forces clients to upgrade
> in lock-step with the cluster. Allow Drill clients to be upgraded after (or
> even before) the Drill cluster to simplify management of desktop apps that
> use Drill.
