Research direction

Start by reviewing the current adapter implementation and the errors thrown by the wrapped Java client. Define and document a stable exception and error-handling model that works for the adapter and a possible native Reactive client. Done means the shared error behavior and translation rules are clearly standardized.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The current adapter implementation wraps the Java client and throws the errors what the Java client throws.

Since the goal is to design a stable API which could be implemented with a native Reactive client later, it is necessary to document and standardize on the error handling and exception model which could be used both in the current adapter approach and later with the native client.
