Description

Arrow Flight is a new general-purpose client-server framework to simplify high performance transport of large datasets over network interfaces. It defines a unifed API to different data systems with data serialized in the middle in Arrow format.

Having a connector for this will enable Beam users to connect to Flight compatible systems.
