--------------------------------------
Summary: Add metadata and prepared statement APIs to
DrillClient<->Drillbit interface
Key: DRILL-4714
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4714
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Venki Korukanti
Currently ODBC/JDBC drivers spawn a set of queries on INFORMATION_SCHEMA for
metadata. Client has to deal with submitting a query, reading query results and
constructing required objects. Sometimes same work is done twice (planning work
in case of prepare statements) to get the metadata and execute query. Instead
we could simplify the client by providing APIs on the client interface and let
the server construct the required objects and send them to client directly.
These APIs provide common info that can be consumed by the JDBC/ODBC driver.
Will attach a doc explaining the new APIs.
