Interface PostFederatedQueryPlugin

public interface PostFederatedQueryPlugin

A PostFederatedQueryPlugin is used to execute functionality after a federated query has been executed. For example if metrics need to be recorded on the query, a PostFederatedQueryPlugin could be implemented to do this prior to the query response being returned to the CatalogFramework.
