> Key: DRILL-7437
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-7437
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 1.17.0
> Reporter: Charles Givre
> Assignee: Paul Rogers
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.18.0
>
>
> In many data analytic situations there is a need to obtain reference data
> which is volatile or hosted on a service with a REST API.
> For instance, consider the case of a financial dataset which you want to run
> a currency conversion. Or in the security arena, an organization might have
> a service that returns network information about an IT asset. The goal being
> to enable Drill to quickly incorporate external data that is only accessible
> via REST API.
> This plugin is not intended to be a substitute for dedicated storage plugins
> with systems that use a REST API, such as Apache Solr or ElasticSearch.
> This plugin is based on several projects that were posted on github but never
> completed or submitted to Drill. Posted here for attribution:
