@marklit,

Thanks for your insights. Great points on inertia and lack of big sales budgets. Agreed also on HDFC/data lake use cases with PQ files. However, regarding querying RDBMS, are you saying that Presto requires in ODBC/JDBC connectivity? Does Presto have an ability to connect with "native DB" drivers?

I can't comment on native drivers. When I said ODBC-like interfaces I was trying to use a catch-all phrase for sources that look like a typical server-based data store (i.e. PostgreSQL, Hive, Kafka).
