How to use vortex-data with Arrow Flight gRPC?

[kesavkolla]

I'm trying to implement an arrow flight SQL server. I want to know can vortex-data be used as interop between record batches and vortex arrays.

I'm assuming this is Vortex Python?

I don't believe there's an easy function exposed at the moment (would be trivial to add) to convert between RecordBatch and Vortex Array.

Longer term, we'd like an equivalent to Flight for Vortex that allows servers to send compressed data all the way to the client, having negotiated which encodings the client supports for decompression.
