Super neat, saw the announcement post on Twitter and signed up the other day!
If folks would find it interesting, I could do a short talk on a use-case for FlightSQL (and Substrait) The gist of it is having a central API that allows users/vendors to write "plugins" to register new data sources: [image: image.png] You lose a lot of the benefits of Arrow in the serialization to JSON, but FlightSQL as a specification is a great language-agnostic way to share schema metadata and handle queries. With Substrait you get a spec for expressing data compute operations as well, so you can have things solved on both the "tell me what you have" and "give me what you have" fronts. (Have to wait for write operations in Substrait though, for full functionality) On Fri, May 13, 2022 at 9:51 AM Wes McKinney <wesmck...@gmail.com> wrote: > hi all, > > My employer (Voltron Data) is organizing a free virtual conference on > June 23 to highlight development work and usage of Apache Arrow — you > can register for this or apply to give a talk here: > > https://thedatathread.com/ > > We are especially interested in hearing from users (as opposed to only > project developers/contributors!) about how they are using Arrow in > their downstream applications.
