             Summary: Implement Windowed Operators
                 Key: APEXMALHAR-2085
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/APEXMALHAR-2085
             Project: Apache Apex Malhar
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Siyuan Hua
            Assignee: Siyuan Hua


As per our recent several discussions in the community. A group of Windowed 
Operators that delivers the window semantic follows the google Data Flow 
model(https://cloud.google.com/dataflow/) is very important. 
The operators should be designed and implemented in a way for 
High-level API
Beam translation
Easy to use with other popular operator

Hierarchy of the operators,
The windowed operators should cover all possible transformations that require 
window, and batch processing is also considered as special window called global 
window

Combine operation includes all operations that combine all tuples in one window 
into one or small number of tuples, Group operation group all tuples in one 
window, Join and CoGroup are used to join and group tuples from different 
inputs.

Components:
Window Component, it includes configuration, window state that should be 
checkpointed, etc. It should support NonMergibleWindow(fixed or slide) 
MergibleWindow(Session)

 Trigger:
It should support early trigger, late trigger. It should support customizable 
trigger behaviour 

Outside components:
Watermark generator, can be plugged into input source to generate watermark
Tuple util components, The operator should be only working on Tuples with 
schema. It can handle either predefined tuple type or give a declarative API to 
describe the user defined tuple class

Most component API should be reused in High-Level API

This is the umbrella ticket, separate tickets would be created for different 
components and operators respectively
