   Dremio reads data from any source (RDBMS, HDFS, S3, NoSQL) into Arrow
   buffers, and provides fast SQL access via ODBC, JDBC, and REST for BI,
   Python, R, and more (all backed by Apache Arrow).
-* **[Fletcher][20]:** Fletcher is an FPGA acceleration framework that can
-  convert an Arrow schema into an easy-to-use hardware interface. The
-  accelerator can request data from Arrow tables by supplying row indices.
-  In turn, the interface provides streams of data of the types defined
-  through the schema. Furthermore, Arrow alleviates serialization bottlenecks.
