Starburst/Trino support (Custom Connector)

Custom connector for Starburst utilizes an ODBC connection for executing custom queries and retrieves metadata using specific queries tailored to this data source.

ODBC Driver

Before importing, using the custom connector requires the installation and configuration of the ODBC driver.

We have tested the import using the Insightsoftware ODBC 2.1.0 downloaded from the https://insightsoftware.com/drivers/trino-odbc-jdbc/ website.
