Description
Calcite is a JDBC driver without an underlying data-store. It provides a means to fairly easily create JDBC access to custom data sources.
https://calcite.apache.org
There are currently adapters (in the Calcite project itself) that would add support for:
- Cassandra
- CSV (this is their development example)
- Elasticsearch
- Splunk
- More at https://calcite.apache.org/docs/adapter.html
Calcite also has a JDBC adapter, that allows piping JDBC requests through this driver.
#### Current version is 1.14.0
We are using Calcite to give us a JDBC layer for a proprietary REST api, would will be really nice to have inside Metabase.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the Apache Calcite adapter documentation and its JDBC adapter, linked in the issue, then compare those capabilities with Metabase's existing database integrations. The issue does not name Metabase files, tests, or an implementation entry point; done would require a defined integration scope and support for the proprietary REST API through Calcite.
