Description

There already are socket input & socket outputs, but there is no way to directly interact with TCP or UDP sockets in a processor.

I would like to have a sql input -> contact a binary tcp service -> sql output .

There is a possible way using the command processor but I wouldn't feed good putting it in production 😅

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests. Start by reviewing the existing socket input, socket outputs, and command processor, then determine the TCP and UDP behavior needed for a processor. Done means a production-suitable processor can connect a SQL input to a binary TCP or UDP service and pass results to a SQL output.
