  name: Presto Client REST API
  description: The Presto Client REST API is the HTTP protocol used by Presto clients to submit SQL queries to a Presto coordinator
    and stream back results. It centers on POST /v1/statement to submit a query, GET on the returned nextUri to fetch subsequent
    result batches, and DELETE on nextUri to cancel a running query. Session context such as user, source, catalog, schema,
    time zone, and language is conveyed through X-Presto-* headers, and supports authentication mechanisms including Kerberos,
    LDAP, password files, OAuth 2.0, and custom authenticators.
