Can this replace Presto if it has an HTTP server?

I am just thinking that OctoSQL can go beyond single machine if it can have a server component.

Adding a Postgres-compatible component is a possible direction for the future.

It's tricky for the more dynamic/dataflow'y parts, as OctoSQL is able to give you a live updating output table (which Postgres wire protocol doesn't support), but I can go with a similar approach as Materialize does for those use cases - creating a live-updating materialized view that you can query from.

That said, it would still not be high-scale nor distributed, like Presto is.
