> In many data analytic situations there is a need to obtain reference data which is volatile or hosted on a service with a REST API.  
> For instance, consider the case of a financial dataset which you want to run a currency conversion.  Or in the security arena, an organization might have a service that returns network information about an IT asset.  The goal being to enable Drill to quickly incorporate external data that is only accessible via REST API. 
> This plugin is not intended to be a substitute for dedicated storage plugins with systems that use a REST API, such as Apache Solr or ElasticSearch.  
> This plugin is based on several projects that were posted on github but never completed or submitted to Drill.  Posted here for attribution:
